UPDATE REGARDING MEETING TODAY BETWEEN THE JAMAICA TEACHERS’ ASSOCIATION & MINISTRY OF FINANCE AND THE PUBLIC SERVICE
I note with much regret the pre-dated media release of August 14, 2025 shared by the Jamaica Teachers’ Association (JTA) today (August 15, 2025). While it is disappointing that the members of the JTA’s leadership choose not to continue the discussions at today’s meeting that they demanded, the Ministry of Finance and the Public Service (MoFPS) remains committed to the matter of Wage and Fringe Benefits negotiations.
