The prison workers’ pay has not been resolved; due to the insufficient budget allocated for the prisons.
The prison workers’ pay has not been resolved (see our January Newsletter). The trade union for prison workers stated that it is ready to stage protests, after criticizing the insufficient budget allocated for the prisons. After some announcements on the part of the Ministry of Justice the union cancelled planned protest actions. However, not everything depends on the Ministry of Justice and if no progress is made the union will decide on other actions.
