The Union Education has announced that the collective legal procedure will initiate a collective legal procedure on Monday, through the State of Agreement to agree on, as they claim, non-compliance with a branch collective agreement and the absence of increasing coefficients by 10 percent.
After the employees in the entry of January earnings were paid with the miscounted coefficients, reducing the coefficients in the valid branch collective agreement, the Main Committee of the Procedure of Montenegro launches the legal procedure before the lawyers for peaceful work disputes, which The necessary precondition is prescribed by the law before the launch of lawsuits before the competent court - was announced from the Education Union.
The President of the Union Education Radomir Božović said the educators would not receive increased January salaries, but also that schools and accountants were said to be calculated according to the old branch collective agreement (GU).
In my knowledge, we will not receive enlarged earnings. Directors and accountants were verbally told to calculate salaries by the old man although in GKU clearly writes what coefficients of 1 January 2024. So, no written order from the Ministry of Education was not. At this point, we will receive the salary without magnification of 10 percent - he said in Tuesday Božović in the show "Reflector" on TV news.
This will mean, he says, that the government of Milojka Spajic will grossly and unilaterally violated GKU signed with the previous government.
Without any dialogue, the government has decided on this step. There is still room to withdraw the accounting lists and to calculate the re-wages, which would mean and giving up on strike - said Božović.
Božović also announced that he should keep a new meeting with representatives of the Ministry of Education on Friday afternoon. They are ready, as they say, to a compromise.
We remind you, the Striking Committee of the Union Education of Montenegro earlier said that it would most likely start a strike around 15 February. The plan is that teachers do not perform classes, but they will have to come to work and be in schools for four hours.
Finance Minister Novica Vuković said that the increase in salaries in health, education and administration can be expected in the third or fourth quarter of this year through amendments to the Law on Sectional Sitters.
Vukovic, after opening the reconstructed road, Mateševo-Kolašin, said that the government did not engage in segregation and favoring individual areas from public administration, emphasizing that the forage on the public sector wages.
Their request was to be a social dialogue, to make a round table, that all participants would be invited and had already started with the new Earning Law. In this way, through all the strategies and policies that should be implemented this year, an adequate policy of salaries will be made and will simply be on general satisfaction and colleagues from the public administration, the citizens of Montenegro, and the state administration itself. So we are talking here about patience, we talk about the third, fourth quarter and that was the request to the unions. On the other hand, they were left on acceptance of such a fair approach, whether they will challenge the institutions in which they are located and continue with their activities that they have called the strike - said Vukovic.
