THE TRADE UNION OF YSU SUGGESTS TO INCREASE MAJOR SALARY OF YSU STAFF
The Trade Union of YSU has offered the University Board of Trustees and the Acting Rector to increase the basic salaries of the employees by 20% in order to improve their social status.
Head of YSU Trade Union Armen Avetisyan said, that Article 15 of the RA Law on Trade Unions was the basis for the proposal.
According to this law one of the goals of a trade union is to make suggestions to the employer regarding the conditions of employment of workers and the size of their remuneration.
“I must state that the initiative stems from the congress of the Trade Union, which proposes that the employer consistently raise the salaries of all employees every year, ”said Armen Avetisyan.
According to Armen Avetisyan, salaries can be increased at the expense of tuition fees, additional financing from the state budget and other income.
According to him during the last year along with the increase of salaries of employees in different sectors of the RA, it is important to immediately increase the salaries of YSU professors and other staff.
As a result of the hard work of YSU staff reserve funds have been accumulated over the years, which allows YSU governing bodies to act more boldly in this matter.
