Kindly assist with drafting five line items for negotiation with Management from the facts below: The Government of Jamaica has taken steps to modify the status of security guards providing services within the public sector and private entities, from independent contract workers to standard employees. This move would better position the employees to access full benefits of entitlements under the law. A special Task Force, chaired by former Bank of Jamaica (BOJ) Deputy Governor, and comprising public sector representatives, has been appointed to engage security firms contracted by the Government to provide services at MDAs island-wide in discussions over 100 days, ending December 2023 and for the special report, with their findings and recommendations, to be tabled no later than January 15, 2024. For employers to honour their obligations, going forward, and for security guards who are employees of these firms to benefit, the simple fact is that customers of security guard firms will have to pay more for security guard services, and there is no way around that. Your mission is, to list 5 line items, of your choice, for negotiation with your employer, Tonka Security, and present same in 15 days.

Kindly assist with drafting five line items for negotiation with Management from the facts below:

The Government of Jamaica has taken steps to modify the status of security guards providing services within the public sector and private entities, from independent contract workers to standard employees. This move would better position the employees to access full benefits of entitlements under the law.

A special Task Force, chaired by former Bank of Jamaica (BOJ) Deputy Governor, and comprising public sector representatives, has been appointed to engage security firms contracted by the Government to provide services at MDAs island-wide in discussions over 100 days, ending December 2023 and for the special report, with their findings and recommendations, to be tabled no later than January 15, 2024.

For employers to honour their obligations, going forward, and for security guards who are employees of these firms to benefit, the simple fact is that customers of security guard firms will have to pay more for security guard services, and there is no way around that.

Your mission is, to list 5 line items, of your choice, for negotiation with your employer, Tonka Security, and present same in 15 days.
