Employees of the Social Service Agency made a decision to go on strike and submitted a statement to the Ministry of Health.
" These people have been demanding decent working conditions and decent pay for years, however, unfortunately, both the mediation process and the subsequent negotiation process have failed. The agency has been taking our protest lightly for so long, which has led us to the relevant result.
Yesterday we sent a message to both the agency and the minister that from January 17 the 390 employees of the Social Service Agency will go on strike, which means that most of the centers will cease to function. These people are going on strike across the country. We continue to fight and will be on strike until our demands are met”, - said Solidarity Network lawyer Davit Tomsarashvili.
Employees of the Social Service Agency are demanding salary increase and creating adequate working conditions.
