A row sparked in April, as reported in last month’s newsletter, when management announced it would no longer be paying salaries for hours employees were scheduled to work but during which no work was available. In a deal reached on 30 April, the company promised to pay back payroll deductions that had been made off drivers’ and engineers’ salaries mid-May. GWU ordered a strike, cancelling over 70 routes, after claiming the promised payments had not been made. Malta Public Transport insists it transferred the deductions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>English: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.maltatoday.com.mt\u002Fnews\u002Fnational\u002F52959\u002Fbus_strike_puts_over_70_routes_out_of_service#.VVnlJPDxdlP\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.maltatoday.com.mt\u002Fnews\u002Fnational\u002F52959\u002Fbus_strike … \u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies (AIAS) \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:cbn-aias@uva.nl\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">cbn-aias@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\"> or the communications officer at the ETUI, Mariya Nikolova \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:mnikolova@etui.org\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">mnikolova@etui.org\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">.
