Saida Sarei staff proceed with strike over pay
The report discusses the strike by employees of Sidon Barracks called for by the Public Administration Employees Union, which lasted for two days in protest against their living and employment conditions. Government offices closed their doors to citizens' transactions, except for the Labor Department, which continued handling some matters related to residence permits. The main demands include retroactive salary payments in a single installment, the preparation of a new fair salary scale starting from the beginning of 2027, as well as increasing transportation allowances and ensuring equality in evaluations until the new salary scale is implemented. Officials warn that continued government neglect of employees' demands could lead to escalation, including an open-ended strike and the closure of offices, emphasizing the need for laws to correct salaries and amend transportation allowances. In the context of calls for improving conditions, the report notes that pay increases have been limited due to inflation, and that the strike serves as a warning, with the possibility of escalation if the relevant authorities do not respond.
