Union Demands Stake in Steel Plant Reopening | Trinidad and Tobago News

Trinidad’s steelworkers union is sounding the alarm as the shuttered ArcelorMittal plant prepares to reopen — this time under new owners Ibis Steel with a $750 million investment and 1,000 jobs on the line. Union president Timothy Bailey demands Prime Minister Mia Mottley recognize their stake in the project, warning she must learn from past missteps. But Mottley rejects their involvement, calling them non-stakeholders and accusing them of failing to attract investors over ten years. The union insists: this isn’t just about jobs — it’s about protecting citizens’ interests and ensuring national leadership puts people first.
