Staff from various institutions across The Gambia convened today, 28th April 2025, at the PIA Hall for a one-day conference themed “Decent Work and Better Wages for a Sustainable Workforce.” The gathering formed part of the build-up to this year’s May Day celebrations.
Throughout the conference, participants deliberated on the conditions within their respective workplaces, focusing on key issues such as fair wages, workers’ rights, workplace safety, and career development opportunities. The discussions culminated in the adoption of a series of resolutions aimed at enhancing the working environment for employees nationwide.
These resolutions will be formally presented to the Minister of Trade during the Workers’ Day grand march-past and sporting events, slated for 1st May 2025 at McCarthy Square in Banjul.
