Pelican and Union Urged to get Around the Table.

Philipsburg:--- The Prime Minister of St. Maarten Sarah Wescot Williams has issued another call to the Management of the Simpson Bay Resort Management Company BV (SBRMC) and Royal Resorts Management Company Ltd (Former Pelican Resorts) to get around the table with the union (WIFOL) and further discuss the labour dispute currently ongoing at the resort.
The Prime Minister said that the court cases will take a long time to resolve the situation. However, she said the parties are also stakeholders and they should be able to sit around the table and work on finding a solution. Wescot Williams said the Minister of Labour Cornelius de Weever met with all parties but she does not know if the parties came to an agreement.
The Court of Appeals suspended the most recent verdict handed down by the Court of First Instance which was to keep the 183 workers on the payroll pending the decision of the Supreme Courts.
