This decision is made based on the Constitutional competencies of the Board, under the Law for Public Enterprises and in accordance with the best international practices of corporate governance, as well as on the basis of ECK's good financial performance. During 2024”, the notice says.
For the deputy of the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK), Ferat Shala, such an act is fraud because KEK workers deserve salary increases and not bonoise.
Shala has accused the incumbent Prime Minister, Albin Kurti, of playing in the sweat of the workers by ignoring and scorning them for four years.
KEK employees deserve pay raise, not bonuss, that's cheating. The government Kurt has played and is playing in the sweat of the workers, has despised and ignored them for four years now (Sundical requests etc). It has discriminated against and deceived workers with no salary performance and no improvement in the working conditions of the two public and private sectors (only four workers have lost their lives in jobs)”, he said of Periscope.
According to him, the KEK case is unique because the government is attempting to temporarily deceive workers until the local and central election process ends.
The former chairman of the Parliamentary Commission for Economics, Industry, Undertaking and Market has raised questions for the KEK Board.
Where was the board until today? Why are you sharing bonus, not salary hikes? Why is that now, a bonus between calendar and fiscal year? What has happened in KEK to give the bonus?
He has estimated that the KEK board on political orders is buying temporary peace with the labour union.
The production has a terrible decline. Without the will of workers with the policies of the KEK government, it has favoured energy restrictions as never before. So the board by political order is buying temporary peace from unions and workers”, Shala said. /Periscopi/
