The chairman noted that dialogue and negotiations were effective tools of addressing dispute in labour relations.

He called for restraint and de-escalation of the situation to enable amicable resolutions.

He pointed out that peaceful resolution was only possible when both parties operate within the law in ventilating their grievances.
