The basic unions of the National Office of Livestock and Cattle Provision (OEP for its French acronym) have postponed the strike that was planned to be carried out from February 13 to February 27 in all its work headquarters across the country.
This postponement stems from a desire to give room for more dialogue between the union and the administrative parties.
As reported by “Al-Shaab” newspaper, the discussed issues include the following: the statute of OEP, revising the organizational structure and the financial purification program of the office, respecting labor standards that is applicable to union work, and the special grant created under Order No. 526 on June 24, 2015.
OEP’s workers stressed the necessity of withdrawing the increases recently agreed upon for office engineers and expediting their access to their work uniforms for the years 2018 and 2019 as well as approving purchase receipts to accomplish this.
In addition to that, demands include reranking workers ranked in class 1 and 2 charged with guarding, cleaning and fill in the existent vacancies in these positions.
The staff and workers of OEP are also demanding to be enabled to have milk portions benefits, a night shift’s grant, the tenure of the seeds’ multiplication and “Shanshu Project” workers as well as the reclassification of 4 workers, as was done with regard to 74 other workers.
