NEW DIRECTOR APPOINTED WHILE STRIKE
Support A1+!Metro drivers are obliged to work since they undertook not to strike signing a working contract. The Information Department of Yerevan Subway after Karen Demirchyan released this.
It also told us that engine drivers will restart working today as they have reached agreement with the leaders. We didn’t manage to find what agreement was made. We couldn’t either contact with machinists, as no telephone functions at Shengavit depot.
But one thing was found. The drivers' demand to increase wages by 100 % was not met . Another demand over restoring status of the “dangerous work” was not met, either. Because of it metro drivers were deprived of many privileges and going for pension at 55.
We suppose that Metro Director Paylak Yayloyan was not courageous enough to tell this to the workers or he had no time as Vahagn Hakobyan has today been appointed Subway new Director.
Subway Information Department told that 10 days before Paylak Yayloyan put an application on leaving his post for health problem.
