Management and union shop stewards met until late on Sunday afternoon where it was resolved that workers would return to their posts while their concerns are being addressed.
Reacting to the withdrawal of labour by members of staff, the Managing Executive of the KNP, Glenn Phillips said “We are happy that our colleagues have agreed to return to work and I sincerely apologise to our visitors who were inconvenienced during this time,” he said.
