Journalists file lawsuit to defend Al-Fajr workers
The Egyptian Syndicate of Journalists, headed by Khaled El-Balshi, is confronting an attempt by the management of Al-Fajr newspaper to liquidate the company that owns it, in order to protect the rights of journalists and employees at the newspaper. The syndicate confirmed that it will take urgent legal and trade union actions to halt the liquidation process, as a company official has submitted documents indicating they have begun transferring ownership. The company has also expressed readiness to discuss an offer that ensures the continuity of the institution and safeguards the rights of its workers. Additionally, the syndicate has decided to contact the Ministry of Labor, the Social Insurance Authority, and the Media Regulation Authority to investigate the company's legal obligations. It emphasizes the workers' right to object to any procedures that violate company law and to ensure they receive their full entitlements, including wages and allowances. The head of the journalists' syndicate clarified that the liquidation has not been implemented yet, and that the syndicate will continue to work legally and union-wise to secure journalists' rights, along with ongoing efforts to confront any attempts at delay or evasion of legal obligations.
