August 5, 2011 - Employees of the regional airline, LIAT, Thursday voted to end a crippling 11 day strike even as their bargaining agent, the Technical Allied Workers Union (TAWU), warned that the “war is not over” with the Antigua-based airline. The workers, who were owed six million EC dollars in outstanding arrears dating back to 1983, have agreed to accept EC$500,000 (US$185,180) with the outstanding matters to be dealt with during arbitration.
