Elad Municipality conflict again: workers will demonstrate tomorrow opposite the office of mayor, Yitzchak Eidan, protesting the substantial cuts in workers' wages following the municipal budget deficit. "On the verge of disgrace".
For over a year, routine management of the municipality, once every period, a notice of future wages cut due to deficits and lack of budget at the municipality. At the same time, and after inquiries to the municipal administration employees, eliminated these posts, and the Committee is invited to negotiate on wages and conditions.
The employees recently hired Attorney Orit Pepper, former treasurer of Ramat Hasharon municipality, who examined the recovery program of the City of Elad, and raised many question behind the plan which raises a storm.
Last week, the board was required to provide urgent attention streamlining plan formulated by the treasurer of the municipality and the Ministry of the Interior. In early March the chairman of the workers, Tomer Cohen, received a letter of future efficiency program parts. The letter is also required to offer alternative plans for the program, "This is not the first time that the Board is required in a short time to present a plan."
During the last week there were three meetings with the City Administration, Attorney Pepper writes: "numerical questions and queries regarding the correctness of some components of the program were answered with partial responses, irrelevant and an attempt to express contempt for the workers' committee."
Tomorrow, employees will protest against the municipality "which does not meet their word", and against the mayor who "does not respect the papers on which he is signed." Employees complain that even a holiday gift they will not receive from the municipality.
"It's time to say: Enough! Never again! If today we brought home salaries that could be considered favorable, the management of the municipality brings us to the doorstep of the fiasco. It is impossible that an employee who has given his life working for ten years for the Municipality of Elad comes home with the minimum wage! We are not slaves!"
Committee chairman wrote on the invitation to the protest: "It will be a protest rally against the management of the municipality, the audacity, the lies and the terrible situation that we find ourselves in." At the same time we have turned to the General Histadrut to declare immediately after Pesach, a labor dispute in the municipality, while disrupting the regular activities of the municipality.
