Union of Supervisors and General Supervisors Expresses Disapproval of Ministry of Education's Decision
The union of supervisors and general supervisors expressed its disapproval on Friday of what it considers to be a unilateral decision by the Ministry of Education. The ministry allegedly published the transfer movement of general supervisors and proceeded with the recruitment of directors and censors without involving the union. The union is calling on the governing authority to immediately return to dialogue and establish a new negotiation mechanism to resolve pending issues.
Key Points
- The union explained in a statement that the movement of supervisors was published without being made public, which contradicts the principle of transparency and represents, in its opinion, a "deliberate marginalization" of the role of unions.
- The Ministry of Education "proceeded in isolation to recruit directors and censors in the absence of any discussion with social partners, contrary to usual practice."
- The union believes that these actions impose a policy of fait accompli and close the door to any negotiation on fundamental issues that should be resolved through serious and responsible dialogue.
Union's Position
The union reaffirmed its right to defend transparency and the principle of participation in all matters concerning supervisors, general supervisors, and the education sector in general. It also opposes the recruitment of directors and censors without the General Union being represented on the commissions.
Current State of the Sector
The union highlighted that the sector is in a state of tension due to the governing authority's failure to fulfill its commitments, including the publication of the competition for general supervisors and the implementation of agreements signed during meetings on February 12, 2024, and July 22, 2024. The ministry has also closed the door to dialogue regarding the professional resolution published by the board of directors on April 14, 2025.
