Workers of La Beach demonstrate over poor salaries

The workers said they were forced to embark on the protest because the General Manager walked out of a meeting which was supposed to address their concerns on Wednesday.

Workers of La Beach Hotel in Accra on Thursday embarked on a protest to demand a minimum 15 per cent increment in salary.

The aggrieved workers said they have been demanding for better pay since eight months now but they are yet to receive a response from management.

Many of them, clad in a red armband and red headgear said they were forced to embark on the protest because the General Manager walked out of a meeting which was supposed to address their concerns on Wednesday.
