PENGASSAN Stutdown Chevron’s Over Failure Of Worker’s Payment

December 24, 2019
in Business

The Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN) has shut down the headquarters of Chevron Nigeria Limited (CNL) following its failure to pay its workers’ entitlements.

PENGASSAN Stutdown Chevron's Over Failure Of Worker's Payment

Chevron has been in a web of industrial actions since its sack gale. It was reported that the company laid off about 70% of its staff. This led to nationwide protest after which oil unions intervened and cut down the number of staff that were laid off.

Although Chevron said it had engaged workers under PENGASSAN in discussions to understand and seek amicable resolution to industrial action, the company is still being barricaded.

Spokesperson of Chevron Nigeria Limited (CNL), Sola Adebawo, said that CNL was already engaging in discussions with the union to understand and seek amicable resolution of the issues.

“CNL confirms that on Tuesday, December 17, 2019, the CNL branch of PENGASSAN directed its members to stay away from work purportedly citing some industrial relations issues as the reason for their action. They have also prevented other employees who are not members of PENGASSAN from gaining access to the offices.

“This is a unilateral industrial action based on inaccurate information. CNL, in keeping with its commitment to resolving issues through meaningful dialogue and respect for the rule of law, is engaging in discussions with the Union to understand and seek amicable resolution of the issues.”

Chevron is the third-largest oil-producing company in Nigeria. It has 40% participation in eight onshore and shallow offshore fields as well as three operated and six non-operated deepwater blocks in the country.
