French Polynesia hotel strike averted

3:16 pm on 29 August 2018

A strike has been averted at two luxury hotels in Bora Bora in French Polynesia.

The union O oe to oe rima and the management of the Intercontinental and the Meridien reached a new agreement, avoiding a strike called for this week.

The union said it wanted a review of the contracts.

However a demand for a daily $US10,000 motivation incentive to counter pressure from management was rejected.
