Dear Editor
THE Guyana Sugar Corporation Inc. (GuySuCo) has noted the concerns of our valued former employees, pensioners, and the Corporation wishes to inform them that it is still in the process of reviewing the proposed payment process for pensioners which requires that payment be made through the banking system.
The Corporation currently has on roll 6,868 pensioners who spread across estates and departments as follows:
Estates/Departments Number of Pensioners Skeldon 700 Albion/PM 1441 Rose Hall 924 Blairmont 710 East Demerara Estate 1430 Head Office 226 Wales 531 Uitvlugt 906 Total 6,868
Additionally, the Corporation currently has in its employ over 11,000 employees at Albion, Blairmont, Uitvlugt, La Bonne Intention Head Office and other locations. However, due to increasing security concerns as well as the re-organising programme, measures are being implemented to better align financial systems in an effort to improve efficiency and minimize risks.
The Corporation wishes to inform all of its valued pensioners that more information will be provided shortly on the review process to develop the most appropriate and convenient payment system.
In the meantime, pensioners are invited to contact the Human Resources Departments at the various estates and LBI Head Office for further information.
Regards
Guyana Sugar Corporation Inc
