MEETING WITH DEPUTY MINISTER OF ECONOMY AND LABOR RISTESKI

The President of the Federation of Trade Unions of Macedonia, Slobodan Trendafilov, met with the Deputy Minister of Economy and Labor, Marijan Risteski.

The President of the Federation of Trade Unions of Macedonia, Trendafilov, informed Deputy Minister Risteski that traders took advantage of the announcement of the previous measure by the Government and unjustifiably increased prices in September, which increased the value of the food and beverage section by 717 denars. The Government's measure resulted in a reduction of 965 denars in the costs of food and beverages, but today, there is another increase of 609 denars, which impoverishes workers and citizens.

The Government should continue the practice by creating measures that will help workers with the lowest salaries and citizens with the lowest incomes.

The SCM is already talking to the Ministry of Economy and Labor regarding the creation of future measures, but it is necessary for traders to either show social responsibility or for the Government to be rigorous in dealing with such unfair trade practices and punish them when creating new measures.
