This is a general guide to your rights at work. If you have workplace issues you should exercise your rights and join a trade union. Many complaints need to be reported within certain legal time limits so seek advice early.

If you have just come across this web site, you will notice that some of the pages are still being developed. If the page you want hasn't been finished yet, come back a bit later. We're working on it.
This web site is designed to give simple guidance in broad terms about your rights as worker. It is not a legal text or legal advice, but is deliberately written in ordinary language.
What is being described here is applicable in Trinidad and Tobago but would generally also apply in the English speaking Caribbean except where the labour law is different.
Industrial relations can be complex, so if you have issues at work and need advice, find a trade union.
