This is in furtherance of the severance arrangements negotiated with GPA through collective bargaining agreement with the dockworkers labour union. Accordingly, severance packages have been fully paid to all dockworkers.
We wish to assure all and sundry that the transfer of dockworkers to DLCG will not affect work at GPA. Furthermore, and where need be, a few more energetic, capable, and willing young Gambians will be recruited and added to the workforce.
The port community, all relevant stakeholders, and the general public are therefore expected to cooperate with DLCG in the discharge of their responsibilities.
