He stated the need to remove a number of restrictions on the labor market, including overtime work, restrictions for pensioners, women and youth. "We need to remove legislative restrictions, including for overtime work, you know we currently have 120 hours. At the same time, people want to work more, businesses are willing to pay more" - saidthe minister.
Itโs clear why people want to work more - in order to afford a piece of bread and butter, higher prices for potatoes and to put something aside until the Central Bank takes it away. It is, however, unclear what prevents an enterprise from paying for overtime work, if that is what they want.
It is also unclear why, instead of solving these problems, they want to roll back everything to the 18th century, depriving workers of all basic rights. All that remains is to assign people to the โownersโ and into batogs. It feels like our ministers, officials and deputies were bitten by Gaidar from the grave.
