During a press briefing held this Friday, March 1st, at the Maison de la Femme, the contract staff of the institution announced a dry and unlimited strike starting from today until their demands are met.
According to the general secretary of the union of contract staff of the Maison de la Femme, Siguide Djimtoide, the staff is demanding a written cancellation of the decision to suspend the union’s general secretary; the implementation of the salary scale according to decree 1111/PR/PM/MFP/2011 establishing the scale and decree 256 of 2013 approving the salary scale as well as article 63 of the collective agreement establishing categorization; the declaration of staff to the National Social Security Fund (CNPS) and the payment of social security contributions.
The general secretary stated that they have been demanding these different points since June 2023. “The union regrets the silence of the MNF administration and that of the supervising ministry, and will be obliged within a month to request the resignation of said administration if our demands are not taken into account,” he warned.
According to him, the Maison de la Femme is a state institution with autonomy of management and should work in accordance with the laws of the Republic and not the whims of individuals who think they can call the shots. “Poorly managed by the managerial officials in collusion with the silence of the ministry, the contract staff is not considered as civil servants but rather as lower-class individuals by the administration and some state workers,” denounced the employees.
