  • Belize Energy Workers' Union (BEWU) is a labour union in Belize which represents workers at Belize Electricity Limited. The union is affiliated with the National Trade Union Congress of Belize. The current President is Rutilio Witzil. Previous Presidents include Ivan Acosta, Mark Butler, Raymond Sheppard, Jose Torres, Marvin Mora, Sean Nicholas amongst many other since 1981. The Belize Energy Workers Union (BEWU) was founded in October 1981. The BEWU is a breakaway Union from the United General Workers' Union (UGWU) as a consequence of unfair representation felt by the members. The workers were part of the membership of UGWU for a fair period of time previous to the Belize Energy Workers Union. However, in latter years, the members felt that its interest was not served justly as the Union had other priorities. This gave birth to the Belize Energy Workers' Union as stated above. The founding members having served as Shop Stewards, Laison Officers etc. on the UGWU for the interest of the Belize Electricity Board workers felt the time had come to chart their own destiny in the atmosphere of loyal brotherhood, sisterhood and solidarity within the Union Movement. The Belize Energy Workers' Union and members of the past Union remain in solidarity for the plight of workers as the need for Unions to be in the interest of all workers. The BEWU first President was Mr. Winston Jones, the first General Secretary was Mrs. Dorla Prior Staine and the first Treasurer was Mr. Ronald Williams. (en)
