Free trade union struggles against discrimination at “Fiberglass” (video)

A talk about abuse of the employer "Polotsk- Fiberglass" the presidential decree on social partnership meeting was held at the Free Trade Union Chairman Victor Stukov plant (pictured) with the first deputy chairman of the executive committee Vladimir Novacki at a reception in the regional executive committee. Violations are to provide different social guarantees for workers of the same profession at the "Fiberglass ", contrary to the decree number 278.

Meeting with the vertical of power became necessary because no one government agency does not allow conflict between the workers and the company management.

Prehistory

Free trade union appealed to the City Council Polotsk discriminatory point of the collective agreement, which provides various social guarantees workers the same profession - depending on whether a member of a union worker is. Executive committee recommended that go to court. But the court Polotsk not consider this argument. Refused to consider workers' complaints and the Constitutional Court, advising workers start with the employer JSC "Polotsk- Fiberglass" in the collective labor dispute.

However, the employer on behalf of director Nicholai Kochanovski illegally (and cowardly) refused a labor dispute with workers. Workers' complaints to the Department of State Labor Inspectorate also led to the elimination of discrimination.

Thus, their own work is not yet possible to stop the violation of the presidential decree number 278 of the employer "Polotsk- Fiberglass".

Atmosphere at the factory

Workers of "Fiberglass" are not satisfied by low earnings in the enterprise and disrespectful attitude towards them and the authorities try to protest their ways. Many are looking for another job and quit trying. But the administration strongly inhibits the dismissal of workers: using the contract system of employment, does not dismiss until the end of the contract.

So many workers are on layoff through deliberate violation of labor discipline. During 2013 81 workers at "Fiberglass" was fired for absenteeism or administration coming to work drunk. All these workers is the factory director's "Belkhimprofsoyuz", which is not working and hoping that he would protect their rights. However, to join the Free Trade Union workers still afraid - because of persecution by the administration.

In an interview with Victor Stukov deputy chairman of executive committee did not showed his attitude to discrimination against workers, so representative of the workers immediately make an appointment with Governor Alexander Kosinets.
