## Resource

A major government workers’ union, the Public Servants Association, faces possible deregistration after failing to submit required financial and membership records, sparking legal and political turmoil. The labor registrar claims the union isn’t complying with the Labor Relations Act, while union leaders argue they’ve been working to fix the issues since 2021 and warn deregistration would erase decades of worker protections. Analysts fear this could trigger years of legal battles and leadership chaos, especially as the PSA recently negotiated critical pay deals for public servants.
