A group of workers employed at the Colombo Port City have staged a protest, claiming that their salaries have not been paid over the last nine months.
Holding placards, the workers engaged in a silent protest inside the premises of the Colombo Port City yesterday.
The protesters alleged that the company under which they were employed had not paid them in months.
“They keep saying they will pay us today or tomorrow. They have not paid us in over 08 to 09 months. How do we pay our staff? How do we feed our families? We want an immediate solution to this issue,” the employees told the media.
The protesters revealed that salaries have not been paid to between 300 to 400 employees of various companies working at the Colombo Port City. (Newswire)
