National Transport employees officially out of a job

Tonight the unemployment line is getting longer. Employees of National Transport are officially out of jobs.  The announcement came today through the Labour Commissioner, Ivan Williams, who said that the Receiver of National Transports and Bel Bus, Kevin Castillo, informed that he would not resume the bus operations.  The employees, some of whom had previously received two weeks pay during the Christmas season, had reportedly been told that business would resume on December twenty-eighth.  Today’s decision now places them in a precarious position because while the majority still has not received any kind of benefit payments, they are now not employed.  Another problem, according to Williams, is that the Department cannot ascertain the number of employees; the Novelo brothers claim there are two hundred and seventy-five but the Labor Department can only account for eighty-three.
