According to information from the workers’ representatives, yesterday was the last day for the deleveraging of a group of 150 workers whose employment contracts in Krušik were not extended at the end of this month, by decision of the Supervisory Board of the factory and the direction. Previously, on July 31, in the same way, some 30 temporary employees of the Valjevo military factory lost their jobs.
Yesterday, however, Krusik’s unions had no information on how many workers from the list of 150 overstaffed (or five percent of the total number of employees) actually left that factory.
They note that some workers on that list, including Natasa Petrić, whose husband Branko Kolarević from Krušik was fired a month ago, left the factory during and at the end of last week. Others, on the other hand, signed documents yesterday on the termination of employment contracts.
But it is not known exactly how many of them left the factory in the previous days, nor has the management informed the unions at the factory about this, much less the public.
According to some information, 52 were fired from the list of laid off until yesterday, and the other hundred workers are supposed to leave the factory by the end of the year. Others, on the other hand, claim that the 150 had to leave the factory until yesterday.
Our interlocutors in Krušik, therefore, claim that a real foolish thing was committed with the dismissal of those made redundant in that factory, about which has been written in recent months mainly due to suspicious trade agreements with private arms dealers close to the state address.
Especially since there is reliable information that some who were on the lists of workers whose contracts should not have been extended, overnight, after “sideways” interventions, were removed from those lists.
Both the dismissed spouses Branko Kolarević and Natasa Petrić told our newspaper yesterday that they know “at least four or five” of their already former colleagues who were removed from the lists of employees whose employment contracts should not have been extended and were returned to work. .
At the same time, when making the lists of people laid off in Krusik’s production plants, no social criteria were respected, that is, the social and material situation of those who lost their job in Krusik at the end of July and these were not considered. days.
According to our sources at the Valjevo factory, other criteria by which people are put on the laid-off lists are also debatable, but those related to social status are the most important because they refer to the “mere existence of persons”.
Faced with such a situation, the Krusik unions plan, they told us yesterday, to discuss with the general director of the company, Vladan Lukić, the forms and criteria according to which the lists of production workers dismissed from that factory are drawn up.
– We believe that it is inadmissible that employment contracts are not extended to single mothers, or that both spouses lose their jobs, as is the case with the Kolarević-Petrić marriage. It is inhumane to leave people on the streets without income. This must be taken into account, and we intend to draw the attention of management to the fact that the social and material position of workers who are on the lists of those whose contracts will not be extended must also be taken into account, say the representatives from the workers.
AF: Send lists of layoffs in Krušik to Gorenje
The workers’ representatives point out that it is also inadmissible for the lists with the names of the dismissed workers to be presented to other companies, such as Gorenje, for example, before the workers themselves are informed that they would lose their jobs at Krusik .
“Last week, we had examples of certain workers who informed us that they had been invited to a job interview in Gorenje, which has plants in Valjevo, and that no one had previously informed those workers that their employment contract would not be extended in Krusik. Other workers on the laid-off list were sent to Gorenje by Krusik’s personnel service, so we assume that Prime Minister Ana Brnabic, who was in Valjevo last week, reached an agreement with Gorenje that the company, with possible financial support from the state, take over on behalf of the Krusik workers. ” say our interlocutors.
