The workers, who wore red bands, chanted war songs and converged in front of the company's premises that were locked up.
Many of the aggrieved workers said non-payment of their salaries had brought hardship to them and their families.
The workers expressed their displeasure about how management had been handling the affairs of the company and that leadership of workers had not been able to voice out the concerns of workers because of the fear of losing their jobs.
Management of the company, however, could not be reached for their side of the story.
