TUMASYAN: STATE APPROACH NEEDED TO ENSURE GUARANTEES TO TRADE UNIONS' ACTIVITIES IN ARMENIA
YEREVAN, June 4. /ARKA/. A state approach is needed to ensure
guarantees to trade unions' activities, Eduard Tumasyan, chairman of
the Armenian Trade Unions' Confederation, said in the National Assembly
today before the start of the hearings focused on such guarantees.
He told ARKA News Agency that collective labor agreements sealed via
trade unions and employers should be obligatory. "This would give us
levers for protecting our activists and would lessen their dependence
on employers," he said.
Tumasyan also pointed out the necessity of financial assurance for
trade unions' activity, just as Armenia's neighbors did it.
He said there are more than 240,000 people in Armenian Trade Unions'
Confederation now, and the 780 trade unions registered by the justice
ministry function in Armenia. -0-
