Salt marsh

A Total of 46,000 mans-days jobs are slated to be created as part of the job creation program undertaken by the government. The salt marsh program, which takes place in the second section of Anse-Rouge (Sources Chaudes) has already seen the creation of 10,000 of those jobs with 70% of the work going for men. The work involves cleaning out the ponds, the dams and the strengthening of the banks. The harder work, the dam cleaning, is done by the men and women harvest salt and clean the dikes.
