Workers demand postponed salary

TANGERANG (JP): Forty workers of PT Proclean, a cleaning service company, ended their one-week strike, but demanded that the management pay two months worth of postponed salary.

The workers staged a protest at the Tangerang legislative council building.

The workers at the Garuda Indonesia maintenance facility at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport, told legislator Endang Muchtar that the company had not paid their February and March salaries.

They said the management at the company's main office in Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta, had said that the money for their salary had not been transferred by Garuda Indonesia.

The workers also complained about the dismissal of 17 workers without fair severance pay.

Legislator Endang Muchtar told The Jakarta Post that the council will investigate the matter within this week. (18/03)
