However, they added that they are fully in support of the management taking steps to address issues regarding staff payment and welfare. They are of the opinion however that their support to the management to go ahead with the pay cut does not include alteration of workers salary.

The Unions concluded by ordering NAMA to pay up all salaries and entitlements as they are due to all the members before the 29th day of June 2020. Failure to do so by NAMA will result in more industrial action from the unions involved.
