Hoti's vow that no pay cuts, unions react

He is not even considering news, the government head Avdullah Hoti's pledge that civil servants' wages will not be affected.

According to him, wages should be regulated permanently with the salary law. On the other hand, he said that this category of workers has continued to be neglected by current governments.

We're not afraid that there's going to be a salary reduction for the fact that this can't happen. What is the logic to think even in this situation while civil servants expect their position in terms of wages to be permanently regulated by the Law of Salaries, which the law is almost completed”.

We've had remarks at certain points that the Ombudsman sent to the Constitutional Gykat and now that the court has given its assessments that the government has much easier to proceed to the Parliament once more and to pass and raise wages to those who are convening”.

Zymber stressed that lowering salaries cannot reduce poverty, but the government must have plans and in order to get the country out of crisis.

There is no way we can say that by lowering wages, poverty can be reduced or economic recovery will be helped because the Government should have its own macroeconomic plans that can take the country out of crisis, rather than lowering wages because if it requires it, it is civilian servants themselves who will claim that even without salaries can work a month, two or three-x1>.

Because when they wanted to freeze their wages they raised to certain sectors they left the civil servant on the side. Now to consider touching the civil servants' salary will in no way be acceptable and deeply controversial”.

Even though lower wages in the public sector have been warned by finance officials, the problem with pandemic has been caused.

But, Prime Minister Avdullah Hoti, has suggested that this will not happen, reports EO.

“won't affect salaries in the public sector because a stable budget framework has been built”.
