The Fiji Road’s Authority is aware of the concerns over the recent termination of workers by the China Railway First Group.

The FRA has terminated the company’s contract to deliver the highway work from 9-miles to Rewa Bridge on Kings Road.

Chief Executive, Jonathan Moore says this is the only project that has been terminated and if the company is unable to reallocate staff then they will terminate those that cannot be put onto other projects.

However, Moore says the FRA has no intention of losing experienced workers, particularly as they were not the reason behind the termination of the contract.

He says as a result they are in discussion with other contractors working on FRA projects with a view to absorb as many as possible into running projects.

Moore says over the next week they will continue their effort to support displaced workers.
