Gevorg Petrosyan: In the private sector, we see that workers are in slavery
During the discussion of the state budget for 2018 at the NA Standing Committees, Gevorg Petrosyan, MP of Tsarukyan Allience, appealing to Artem Asatryan, Minister of Labor and Social Affairs, said: "Not only social but also job issues are under your responsibility. What have you done in that direction?" The Deputy mentioned that even during Gevorg Petrosyan, being the Minister of Labor and Social Affairs, such thing did not exist. "No, during my time there was a labor inspection. No it does not exist. In the private sector, we see that workers are in slavery, while the ministry works as an observer. You've set some money for this direction?" Artem Astaryan, Minister of Labor and Social Affairs, said: "No money is set for that direction at the moment." Hakob Hakobyan, the Chairman of the NA Standing Committee on Social Affairs and Health, added: "It is also not normal when money is taken from a desperate person for an investment."
