Contract workers blocked the road adjacent to the company with burning tires and vowed to take escalatory measures.
On Monday (September 22) two EDL contract workers threatened to kill themselves outside the Royal Tower building near the EDL institution.
One of the EDL workers threatened to set himself alight while another wielded a knife and deliberately injured himself.
A meeting held earlier between the EDL committee and one of the service provider companies did not yield positive results.
EDL contract workers have been protesting for months calling on the government to employ them as full-time staff and to pay their salaries.
Their protests have included shutting the gates of EDL headquarters in Beirut and disrupting normal work at the state-run company.
