Election of the New Executive Committee of the Council of Trade Unions
Vijay Bundhun takes the presidency of the Council of Trade Unions, focusing on pension reform.
The Council of Trade Unions (CDS) recently held its annual delegate meeting at GTU House, located in Quatre-Bornes, during which a new executive committee was elected for the 2026-27 term. This election was marked by the election of Vijay Bundhun, who also serves as vice-president of the Mauritius Trade Union Congress (MTUC) and chairs the Federation of Public Service Unions.
Pension reform has been identified as one of the major and priority issues for the new board. The delegates present emphasized the importance of this matter, which raises concerns among workers and unions. The CDS, as a representative entity of the unions, positions itself to address the challenges related to pensions during this term.
Vijay Bundhun expressed his commitment to defending workers’ rights and leading the necessary discussions to advance the interests of union members. His election to the presidency is seen as a sign of continuity in the fight for fair working conditions and enhanced social protections.
The work of the new committee is therefore expected to be ambitious, with clear objectives on the table, particularly regarding pension reform, which could have significant implications for all workers in the country.
