The Union of Professional Educators - Voice Of The Workers said it will continue to fight for the interests of its members in spite of being informed of a warrant of prohibitory injunction filed by the Education Ministry.

The legal action was taken following the issuing of directives by the union, which the government says has no recognition.

The action is a clear sign that the Education Directorate is trying to deprive its employees from choosing UPE to be their voice, the UPE said. “Make no mistake, this move only continues to convince the same union that it is being effective in making its members voice heard,” the union said.

Until the conclusions of the injunction are issued, the Union will be effectively suspending its actions in this regard as is requested by the courts, the UPE said..
