In response to questions about outstanding back-pay, Browne shared that he had instructed the finance ministry to “find the money” necessary to provide this bonus.

He indicated that this payment will partly address the back-pay owed to public servants as part of a 14% salary increase implemented nearly two years ago.

  1. We are talking about backpay from 2018 sir. So wait the Government owe backpay from 2 years ago as well?
    Dam working civil servants can’t get overtime, can’t get backpay from 6 years ago, can’t get backpay from 2 years ago, can’t get water, can’t get stable electricity, can’t get good health care, can’t get jobs, can’t get a transparent Government, can’t get good roads, can’t get resources on the job to be more productive, can’t get mold free offices and vehicles, can’t can’t, can’t, can’t get nothing.
    Oh sorry we got an airport😁

  6. Ok, interesting….
    So the November salary that we receive in December, n the den the December salary that we receive just b4 Christmas Eve…. doesn’t that constitute as the supposed 2 salaries he claims we going get in December? To spend as Christmas shopping?

    Ppl, plz….if they can suddenly “find the money” 4a “1month bonus” as he claims, then y is said “bonus” suddenly apart of the “14% increase in salary” that we can’t see all now? Furthermore, if, n I do mean “IF”, we r receiving a bonus, y can’t a monthly bonus b done consecutively 2complete ALL BACK-PAY payments????

    Plz,
    Mek it mek Sense….

  7. Thank you sir. You are making an effort even though some people ungrateful. Next is the long overdue overtime, then the two months salary for those who refused the jab and who are alive and well as a result. Thank you.

  8. Is is applicable to places like
    Airport Authority
    Port Authority
    State Insurance
    MSJMC

    We need some clarity please…..

    Also is this extra/bonus in additon to the early salary that is normal for that time of year?

  9. Observation!!!!
    Whenever there is backpay talk for public servants, it usually signals an election!

    The government is never interested in backpay until that magic seasons is around. Keenly observe public servants are being paid way way before month end!

    Have you heard a note of discontent other than sick buildings and” protracted”package negotiations?

    Gassy making sure enough cheese in their mouth so much so their cheeks come up over their eyes!!!

    Should not take an election cycle to negotiate bargaining agreements.

    Give the public servants their due!!! Totally

  10. Don’t be fooled by Gaston Browne antics, he is always Hellbent on robbing and pauparising Antiguans and Barbudans people. Each time Civil Servants are to be given their back pay, he always comes up with a scheme to rob the workers.
    Please understand, that two months salary is by no way, equivalent to your back pay which is also retroactive to years before, thus giving you a larger increase in your back pay by law.
    This is wickedness to poor people. Why is Gaston Browne is always looking ways to short change workers.
    Remember!! after getting those two months pay in December, that’s the end of your back payment for good , after he had just given himself a 14% increase in his own salary, while backdated his back pay to an year, with all kinds allowances and perks added.
    Worker are always left with the bitter end of the stick, the cunning and vindictive Gaston Browne takes pleasure in seeing the suffering of Antiguans, can you imagine that after 19 years, Social Security Pensioners haven’t gotten an increase, while Government Pensioners for over 16 years now.
    Try as you may, you time will soon becoming to an end, and your wickedness will forever torment you, you Pharoah.

  11. GOD I GIVE U ALL THE GLORY THANK U FOR WHATEVER IT IS WE WILL BE GETTING U.SAID IN EVERYTHING TOO GIVE THANKS AM GIVING U THANKS IN ADVANCE LORD LITTLE IS MUCH WHEN GOD IS IN IT BLESS YOUR HOLY NAME JESUS
