Digital Government Minister Kyriakos Pierrakakis announced an amendment for the restructuring of the Hellenic post office, highlighting that “ELTA is in more than one”. The amendment, based on which 2,000 of the 5,500 ELTA employees will be volunteers, provoked a strong reaction from SYRIZA, which through MP Marios Katsis emphasized that ELTA’s presence and services must be at affordable prices, while maintaining that “no” We will tolerate an amendment that circumvents labor rights. ”
Speaking to the Finance Commission, the minister stressed that ELTA has a deficit of 2 million euros per month, while, as he said with the amendment, there will be a two-year volunteer program for 2,000 of the total 5,500 employees. He added that there has been an investment interest to cover 10% in the capital increase, while the modification provides for universal service compensation for the 2013-2020 period.
“The government’s goal is for all ELTA branches to continue operating within their social role and for the company to become profitable again. The company must fend for itself. If we don’t give it the tools, it would be an indirect help to the competition. “. “noted Mr. Pierrakakis.
What did SYRIZA say about the amendment?
“The future of ELTA is not its discredit or its surrender to private interests. And if it is really cut off as a government and as a faction, ELTA to continue to play the role of universal provider, must remain under public control.” Marios Katsis, a SYRIZA deputy, responded.
“After all, we as SYRIZA have shown you the way when we legislate to compensate ELTA with 90 million for the years 2013-2018 with universal service compensation and we collect from the debts of the public and other bodies that owed ELTA 45 million. oligarchy in this plan because it entered the pandemic phase at a time when demand has exploded and everyone has turned to e-commerce and ELTA has been left out and private competitors have benefited. “The government is a clear lesson and a defeat for the neoliberal notion that the invisible hand of the market regulates everything and that no state intervention is needed.”
