PM Warns Disrespectful Foreign Managers Could Face Deportation

Prime Minister Gaston Browne has warned that foreign hotel managers and expatriate workers accused of mistreating or exploiting locals could be deported if credible complaints are brought before the government.

Speaking on the Browne and Browne Show on Saturday, Browne said his administration will not tolerate what he described as disrespectful behavior toward Antiguans and Barbudans by non-nationals employed in the hospitality sector or other industries.

“When you come here as our guest, you have to treat our people with respect,” Browne said, adding that any credible information about misconduct would be investigated and could result in deportation.

He said the warning applies to cases involving sexual exploitation, workplace mistreatment or other forms of abuse. At the same time, the prime minister urged local workers to treat their supervisors with respect, regardless of nationality.

Browne stressed that Antigua and Barbuda remains open to foreign investment and skilled expatriate workers but said national sovereignty and the dignity of citizens must be protected.

The comments form part of a broader push by the Cabinet to ensure that economic growth benefits locals and that workplace standards are upheld across sectors.

  1. Then the same person would have to pay for the arbitrary expulsion either through a settlement or a court order.

    Everyone in this country has constitutional rights.

  2. The victims should have their day in Court before he/she, her/she, she/it, s’him is deported.
    Is it a fact, that several members of high society in Antigua & Barbuda are listed in the Jeffery Epstein files?
    What happens to those in government who’re allegedly doing the same things as this person is accused of?
    You do know about the Check De Minister law, right?

  4. Gaston Browne,if you are going to set those standards.Let it begin with you.For I have listened to you for years now,verbally abusing others.LET IT BEGIN WITH YOU,AS THE LEADER OF THE NATION.RESPECT FOR SELF,EQUALS RESPECTS FOR ALL OTHERS.

  5. Also making sure there’s equal salary across the board for local black people the same as he fat salary the white people r*ss making with all the perks and benefits for eg white man 15k monthly black man 4k for di same job 🤔 that can right? No value on black man just exploitation…

  7. And what about the hotel guess that spit on black workers in hotels here in Antigua? And the workers have to take it or they would be fired if they spit back on the white people.

    A lot of horrible things guess have done to hotel workers in this country and nothing for it.

    Some of these guess at hotels are racist kkk that come to the Caribbean taking advantage of our people.

  8. Some of these hotel works whether Antiguans or not are very lie when they cant have things their way ..im a Hotel worker , i listen to staff n.plenty are liars when they want their own ways

  10. Another version of the slave plantation. Yes ma’am🍲. Yes sir🍹.
    Anything else⛱️

  11. The supervisor whether local or foreign always mistreat the staff out of spite and when the staff reacts they say because they want their own way. A lot of these people that are in managerial positions can’t do their job/ know their job because their focus are on gossip, friend/family and emotions from the gossip they listen. It’s very hard in the hotel sector especially when working under these old spitefully stupid people who are in managerial positions and won’t be professional. Those are the people who are quick to call people liars when the liar is actually them.

  12. These Managers and Supervisors abuse their power for what,what for ? Friend and company is what is killing the hotel sector. Been spiteful to staff as well and i do wonder if they remember they have children that they wouldnt want nobody to mistreat their chikd like that. All I can say there is something special waiting,whether its you,your child or a relatuve yall are feel it same how staff felt it. God gonna make yall hear them cry. One thing about God he dont play about good people. You’ve been walked all over by manager and that moment that staff decide to be out spoken here comes spite. Most mannagers cant even do their job to be honest its a funny thing,but just a reminder remember yall have kids. I’ll leave it here.

  13. I agree!!

    Try them in court and when they’re guilty and have a criminal record, deport them.

    But also let the workers know that false accusations against anyone will result in they being charged as well.
