"The Parliament" Reverses Its Approval of the Legal Amendment Allowing Worker Layoffs

The Parliament has reversed its stance on a legal amendment that would have allowed employers to lay off 5% of workers annually.

Today, the Parliament revisited Article 8 of the amended Labor Law after over 60 members requested its reopening. The article was approved in the previous session, including the controversial amendments related to worker layoffs. The Parliament reaffirmed its rejection of any layoffs after initially agreeing to the 5% figure, reducing it from the 15% proposed in the amendment sent by the government.اضافة اعلان
