Morocco: UMT denounces corruption in the country

work law number 13.130 on the budget law especially at the level of its article 5 which states that the new PLF must be developed on the basis of a three-year budgeting.

The central union has estimated that the government still remains prisoner of the neoliberal approach which considers that the social dialogue and the public services are only a burden for the public fund. In this context, the UMT explained that social dialogue and the resulting collective agreements are in fact a human investment since human capital is the essential driver of all sustainable development.

In its communiqué, the UMT considered that the new PLF, in its entirety, seeks only to achieve false financial balances on the account of social balances. The trade union center gave the example of the creation of 23,000 jobs that do not meet the real needs of the country. In addition, the union criticized the maintenance of the contractual formula in recruitments for 15,000 jobs in 2020, which will greatly undermine professional stability and which reflects the discriminatory intention of the government; in this sense, the UMT assured that this choice represents a serious violation of the Constitution and international professional conventions ratified by Morocco. The UMT has in this sense assured that the government has learned no lesson in the last three years where social tension was at its peak especially in the education sector.

For the UMT, Morocco's real problem is the level of bad growth, the poor liberal economic choices, the unequal distribution of the country's wealth, corruption and the mismanagement of the mechanisms of administration and business. public. For the central union, all these data prevent the development of a PLF that can help achieve the predefined objectives.
