PULA, Oct 11 (Hina) - The newly-established union of the employees
within the military was presented in Pula on Friday, when the
union's head Ljubomir Cerovac, spoke about the aims of the union's
work. #L#
The goals of the union are to make it possible for the employees in
the military to conclude a collective contract, improve their
rights and to launch an initiative for the revocation of Article 11
of the law on the service in the Croatian Armed Forces, which does
not allow the organisation of active army officers on the union
level.
The leader of the Federation of Croatian Labour Unions (URSH),
Boris Kunst, said this union was established at the moment when it
was announced that many employees of the defence ministry would be
laid off. Therefore, one of the tasks of the newly-established
union will be to ensure dignity to the employees in this ministry,
Kunst said.
Present at the news conference in Pula were representatives of
Police Officers' Union and Customs Officers' Union who supported
the new association.
