Appeal to the Chairman of the Central Committee of the Trade Union of workers of REP Gybinu I.V.
The protest against raising the retirement age, or more simply, the destruction of our people is gaining momentum. Primary trade union organizations appeal to their leaders with proposals to organize the All-Russian protest action, criticize the compromising policy of the FNPR and its leader M. Shmakov, demanding that deputies who are members of the United Russia faction who voted for raising the retirement age be excluded from the trade union organization.
Below we give one of these appeals.
RUSSIAN TRADE UNION OF EMPLOYEES OF RADIO ELECTRONIC INDUSTRY
TRADE UNION COMMITTEE JSC IZHEVSKY ELECTROMECHANICAL PLANT KUPOL
Chairman of the Central Committee of the Trade Union of Workers of REP Gybinu I.V.
Dear Ivan Vyacheslavovich!
The primary trade union organization of JSC IEMZ Kupol appeals to you as a guarantor of the protection of the social and labor rights of workers, a leader uniting the workers of the radio-electronic industry of our country!
The decision to raise the retirement age, so promptly taken by the Government of the Russian Federation and supported by the State Duma of the Russian Federation, causes our utmost indignation! We are also deeply outraged by the decision of the FNPR and personally Mr. M. Shmakov. on agreement with the ongoing pension reform, despite the proposals aimed at its “mitigation”!
The unprecedented attack on the rights of workers, the violation of the moral and social norms of society received a wide public response!
The position taken by the so-called “trade union deputies”, who are simultaneously members of the political faction “United Russia”, causes a sharply negative reaction. It is not clear why representatives of the trade union in the State Duma allow themselves to vote for the adoption of an anti-people law, adhering to the so-called “United Russia” factional discipline, thereby undermining the authority of the most numerous organization designed to protect the rights of the working people?
We see excellent ideological training and discipline in the United Russia party and a low level of trade union discipline. Instead of fulfilling their intended purpose and voting against raising the retirement age, the “chosen ones” chose to cowardly support the bill, betraying those who believe them! The political ambitions of these henchmen are now completely clear!
We insist on the exclusion of these trade union parliamentarians from the ranks of the trade union organization in connection with the loss of trust! We think we were betrayed!
With their "help", the Federation of Independent Trade Unions in one instant lost the confidence of the absolute majority of its employees!
It is still possible to increase the authority and restore the confidence of the working people, only for this it is necessary, while there is still time, to say “NO” to the destructive law together.
Ivan Vyacheslavovich, the Primary Trade Union Organization of IEMZ Kupol JSC, having carefully studied and analyzed the Resolution of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the Russian Trade Union of Radio Electronic Industry Workers, is ready to support you in the struggle for workers' rights! To achieve this goal, it is time to unite with our colleagues in the face of other industries, as well as other organizations and associations that support our ideals.
We offer you, as the leader of the Trade Union of workers in the radio-electronic industry, not to allow the adoption of the law in the second reading and, not waiting for the third reading of this anti-social bill, to coordinate the activities of the REP industry enterprises with enterprises of other industries, as well as our colleagues, to organize and lead the All-Russian action protest of workers in the form of a rally or march!
We are with you in the fight against the violation of the rights of the working people! We are against solving state problems at the expense of robbing ordinary people!
We do not call for revolution, we call for solidarity, thereby fulfilling our main function - protecting the labor rights of the working people!
We are for STRONG and FAIR trade union!
On behalf of the trade union activist PPO JSC "IEMZ" Kupol "
Chairman of the trade union committee V.B. Nelsin
