Federation of trade unions brought action against government - telechannel
Astana. March 20. Kazakhstan Today - Federation of trade unions of Kazakhstan has brought an action against the government and is going to hold mass protest actions in the Republic. The leaders of the trade-union organizations declared their radical intentions today in Astana, the agency reports referring to telechannel КТК.
The telechannel informs that the employees of budgetary sphere wish to achieve increase of salaries for teachers, doctors and military employees and reminds that two months ago the Federation of trade unions sent the letter to the government with the requirement to reconsider the mechanism of charge of salaries and to make their indexation.
Trade-union leaders continue to insist: their main employer - the government - breaks several articles of the Law on Labor.
"According to article 124, which says, that at the level defined by the government salaries should be indexed from the rate of inflation. No indexations of wages in the budgetary sphere took place," the representatives of trade union informed the telechannel reports.
The Minister of Labor and Social Protection completely denies it and states the opposite. He assures that with indexation everything is all right. He said that he personally explained the state employees that "there will be indexation in the budget of this year in connection with price increase."
"Today the employees of the budgetary sphere declared that they plan to bring a suit against government. The trade unions declared the beginning of preparation for mass protest actions that will take place on April 5," O. Tsoy concluded.
