WILLEMSTAD - KTK employees will probably not receive an end-of-year bonus. The financial situation of the towing company in the port is not good because of the Isla refinery that has been closed for months. The refinery is their number one client.

Yesterday KTK employees laid down the work in protest. The management has now pledged to look again at the possibilities. Of the 136 staff, 22 are already volunteering to leave the company or because their contract expires.
