City assures returning workers no indiscriminate firings
Mayor Morris Turner said the city will not terminate the 62 sanitation workers in the labor pool formed after their four week walkout for higher wages. Seventy seven workers had returned to fill vacancies with 37 back in their old posts, 23 still not back, and three more transfers planned. A discussion committee including the protesters and city officials will review merit pay policies as tensions ease.
