3:02 pm
yes, determining the minimum wage for workers is an issue that is raised every year in the supreme labor council and based on article 41 of the minimum labor law. the salary of the workers is determined as you can see in this graph , the wage growth and the inflation rate are specified in this graph , the wage growth is shown in blue and the inflation rate is in orange in different years from 1360 to 140d. inadequacy in the years different you can see that some experts believe that
3:03 pm
the annual minimum salary increase should be equal to the annual inflation, but on the other hand, others believe that increasing the salary according to the inflation rate will lead to an increase in inflation. in this program , i will talk more about this topic with experts. prepare the report my friends. see this report , we will come back and start the conversation. article 41 of the labor law says: workers' salaries and wages must be determined every year in accordance with the inflation rate. the issue that the legislator has considered in order not to shrink the table of activists in the field of production and work is only for bananas add the base. of course, all these 32 years that have passed since the approval of the labor law, labor and employer representatives did not reach a complete understanding on the determination of salary. livelihood basket as
3:04 pm
to be fully covered by the minimum wage set, but the trend is upward and every year it has been tried to make this difference in wages and the difference in the purchasing power of dear workers, which has decreased , be more than the inflationary sectors that we had in the past years. let's cover this basket, but the minimum wage is always determined by a large part of it, but to say that it is completely covered is not 366. in the table, whatever we accept in the material, should he live, will he become higher or will he become poorer? here we want to decide whether to increase the purchasing power of the worker or to make him weaker. we don't accept this practice. now with the beginning of the 14th government, the president says the following regarding the amount of salary increase in line with the inflation rate: salary should
3:05 pm
be equal to inflation, not that we have 50% inflation , 20% salary increase in which the law is contained in the law that is also in the parliament, now the date is why boys can't you monitor? retirees' protest, the employees who are protesting say, "sir, why is this law we are implementing? they are demanding the law from us. i once said in my parliament, really, when a person sits facing the employees or retirees, the power has no answer. they are saying the right thing, sajjad." wahabi radio news agency yes, our guests in this program are ms. fatemeh azizkhani, an expert at the islamic council research center, and mr. mohammadreza tajik , a labor representative in the supreme labor council. ms. aziz , let's start with you, what do you think about increasing workers' salaries based on the inflation rate that the president he also mentioned it in the name of allah, the most merciful
3:06 pm
, the most merciful. i have my greetings and respect to you , dear viewers of the program. look at this citation, which is a completely legal citation, because in article 41 of the labor law, this is completely , and besides, well, finally, their livelihoods are having problems, and these statistical data it is also showing. well, look, besides this, now let's go back to the basics of the macroeconomics of this matter from 1390 to
3:07 pm
1400. if we compare this, the per capita income of the whole country, i.e. all iranians, in 1400 is almost two-thirds of 1390. it means that our share of the economic pie for all iranians in 1400 is compared to 1390 decreased and in all the units, now calculate the share of production factors from labor force to capital, all of these were reduced proportionally , that is why the labor force or workers also take a small share of this production cake. economic fundamentals that included the discussion of sanctions. we talked about corona, the negative economic growths that happened during this period, well, this was almost necessary, but from 1040 onwards , when we have almost growths above 4, we must return to the fact that a compensation for the labor force will finally happen for the working class. and even the staff
3:08 pm
the government, because we see this procedure, the government has considered it even for its own employees, because of the deficit debates, and in other cases, it has adopted a conservative approach. the salaries of the employees themselves, well, what is in article 41 is proportional to the inflation, as i told you that our data does not show this, but how does this really want to happen in the implementation mechanism, you can see that part of it is due to the flaws that we have in the way of determining wages in the country. the same bargaining model that exists, yes, the bargaining model that exists, now i will enter from now on , because i have been a member of the wage committee for 3 years now. i am participating in the meetings. when we come to discuss the issue , the government will announce a livelihood package, that is, it will determine a subsistence cost, and that will be the basis for them
3:09 pm
. of course, i do not agree with the workers in this field. the number is taken by the worker . another number, and this one has reasons. if there is a need to explain, i will explain why the livelihood of the worker is different from the government . unfortunately, what i have seen in these years is the basis of inflation. for example, in january of that year or december of that year that the negotiation is happening it is mentioned that how much the next year's inflation will be is not visible, which means that they should have a forecast about the next year's inflation . yes, unfortunately, we do not see this at the bargaining table. and even though i say that among the members of the supreme labor council, well, there is a minister of economy , there is a position minister, and there is a minister of labor, after all, the three ministers who are nobles of the country's macroeconomics are also committed to implementing
3:10 pm
macroeconomic policies, so to speak, unfortunately. we see that when the government means, when i say the government, i mean the three ministers, who are finally the representatives of the government. may company first of all , there is no forecast of next year's inflation in the negotiations, and the basis of inflation for the same year is set in the law. has anything been announced that the next year's inflation should be forecast or is it a result? look at the conditions of iran's economy. the issue is that the salary we set at the beginning of the year is correct in line with inflation. we jump it a bit . well, the salary is fixed until the end of the year, but unfortunately, according to the economic environment we have, inflation is a flu variable. a variable that is not constant, well, this causes that in the beginning. year if the allowance you set covers 60% of the family's livelihood
3:11 pm
, it will not reach 30% of the household's livelihood at the end of the year. very well, mr. tajik. now, before we talk to mr. tajik , we have invited the friends of the ministry of economic affairs and finance. to be present in the program , they announce that they will be present one or two hours before the program, but they also announce that they are not ready to participate. we also invited the friends of the ministry of labor cooperation and social welfare to the program, who said from the beginning that we will not participate in this program, mr. tajik, what do you think? regarding the model, which is now in any case , it can be felt in the name of allah, the most gracious, the most merciful. i offer my greetings and courtesy to the viewers of the khabar channel, as well as the respected presenter, mr. aslan khawani. well, good explanations and mrs. doctor, just to say in this regard. there is a second note in article 41, which practically the legislator
3:12 pm
saw all the points when he was drafting the law . we should look at the second interpretation of article 41. inflation in note two says that it is required, it says that it must be enough to cover the living expenses of the house cover the worker. practically, two explanations are complete . note that when we arrive , we calculate the cost of living and in the salary committee, food and non-food items are included in the inflation of the current year we are in . well, this is the first thing that you just mentioned, note d, why has it not been implemented, so until now
3:13 pm
, well, this is exactly what happens in the supreme labor council every year, and our emphasis is on the correct calculation of the cost of living , and we say that the salary should be equal to the cost of living. we have nothing to do with inflation. in fact, when you calculate the cost of living, inflation can be seen. now there is a point why we we have a salary delay year and there will be a salary dispute? this is precisely because of what the doctor said. we made a decision in 1402 for 143. this means that every year we are lagging behind the set salary. there are two or three points regarding determining the livelihood portfolio. it happened in the past in the twelfth government, so
3:14 pm
it was a good thing that before that , they used to determine according to inflation, but the government reached a point when we reached this point in the past years as well , and it became a problem for us to calculate this livelihood basket. in 1401, the livelihood basket and according to the agreement of approx we reached 13 million tomans in 1401. unfortunately , last year, our social partners, especially the governments themselves, where the ministry of cooperation was the part that formed the wage committee determination meetings. reaching the numbers of 15 tomans. it is absolutely impossible for you to reach an agreement on 13 million in 1401 with the inflation
3:15 pm
of about 41. the cost of living would be 15 tomans . well, what happened was that there was no agreement and consensus. we did not have a basis for determining wages for 403. and the only possibility to determine what happened was 71 turrem. actually , in my opinion, this was the request of the government. if not, why not? it was clear to everyone that we should take a very simple mathematical multiplication of 13 million tomans and give it an inflation factor, about 18 tomans , our livelihood portfolio should have been formed
3:16 pm
. it was all with the help of the government. it was very interesting for me to come. it was an issue that i brought up in the wage committee. i said, "why are the calories of the worker's family's livelihood decreasing day by day ? day by day, the workers' table is getting smaller. the experts say no, sit down, calculate, and eat." how many calories does the human body need? i said why considering that i think about 7. it has been 8 years since i have been a member of the wage committee since the beginning and also the supreme labor council as a representative of the workers . all the governments are trying to make this profit smaller so that
3:17 pm
the number is smaller and our combing power will decrease . well, in my opinion, in order to determine how much we are behind in the cost of living, we should first come again and form a committee in the ministry of labor and with attention to the opinion the expertise of this table is to determine how much the total minimum cost of living is so that we can make the right decision . the biggest factor that the social partners do not agree on is the 433 members of the islamic council and members of the economic commission are also with us, mr. zahorian. hello , i am at your service, dear viewers and guests of your program. thank you very much, mr.
3:18 pm
zahourian . inflation or based on the inflation rate , we will discuss with the guests of the program and how far are we from that? you also had an amendment in article 41 that should be done in the parliament . please mention it. i am your presence. well , we basically have a problem in our country's service law from 2016 onwards. the basis for the salaries of government employees is the same as the labor law, which except for one year in the civil service law and one year in the labor law, the salary increase was lower than the inflation rate, that is, for example, in the labor law, i calculated in 1402 approximately from 1997 to 1402 28 power
3:19 pm
buying a person who gets the minimum salary of the labor law, this percentage has decreased in other categories there is more, because we usually increased at least more than other categories, which means that this decrease will be more. you have to add one percent to this in 1403. if you want to calculate this rate now , this will basically lead to a series of disturbances in the system. we have a labor shortage in many areas, especially in hard industries. and industrial jobs, when you go , you see many industries with a shortage of workers . the deputy minister of labor used an expression that we have jobs, but we don't have workers. well, this is a wrong view, the problem is not the lack of workers. the problem is that the minimum wage rate has been suppressed so much that in many places going to work is basically an
3:20 pm
economic justification for a society that has already experienced a certain level of salary. it is lost. we are not basically talking about increasing salaries , it is the issue of salary stabilization, which means that money in the economic system is based on the value and purchasing power it gives to the individual . we are talking about the issue of giving the same rights to our workers as we had last year. we are going to give him the same salary in the following years , just as the average of goods and services has increased by one percent, this happened in workers' rights. that said , there was an ambiguity in article 41 of the labor law that the title mentioned there regarding the ratio of salary increase to inflation is that according to the inflation rate, workers' salaries should be increased. find , well, the interpretation that unfortunately could be made from this, considering the inflation rate, because it is not emphasized, at least the rate of inflation , or the rate of inflation, friends say, well, we
3:21 pm
paid attention to this rate of inflation, but the power of the government is only so much , and because, for example, there is no inflation, we for example , 42 years ago, the annual inflation rate was 45. according to the report of the center for statistics and salary increase, it was 22. on average, the question is, what kind of attention there is about a 100% gap between these two numbers. to resolve this ambiguity, we proposed an amendment to article 41 that this title should be changed according to the inflation rate, at least to the inflation rate, which obligates the supreme labor council to increase the inflation rate. the supreme council can be considered as a kind of stabilization of workers' rights, we said that. at least it should be stable, but our point of view is that this multi -year decrease should be compensated within a period of time, that is, nearly
3:22 pm
400 in the last seven or eight years, we had a decrease in the purchasing power of workers, it should be in a period of four to five years. we are not saying that everyone should apply this 40% all at once and in the first year, but gradually, in addition to inflation, this number should be included, so that we, god willing, our workers will be the same minimum . whether it is taken into account or not, it should be proportional to the inflation rate or not. our suggestion is that it should be at least equal to the inflation rate. see the main argument that came to the discussion that the increase in workers' salaries is less than the inflation rate, but the increase in workers' salaries. the argument is basically a wrong argument, that is, the question is why we should give inflation we should keep the inflation rate low. well, the problem is that
3:23 pm
inflation has a negative effect on the purchasing power of the people. otherwise, inflation is not rejected by itself. then we came and kept the people's rights low , and we kept the purchasing power low to reduce inflation, and this is us. it is one of those serious debates that some experts have their opinions on. it reduces the purchasing power, then we lowered the purchasing power to control the inflation, this itself puts us in a vicious circle, and we should also consider this point that when we talk about increasing the wages of workers and employees, because we are employees, this is we have the problem that their rights lower than the inflation rate has increased in recent years. the salary increase that is mainly applied to the lower classes goes to the real consumption demand, that is, less to the false demand and
3:24 pm
the capital demand goes to the dollar and gold market. it activates empty factories , increases the need for goods and increases production , thus employment has a positive effect on inflation. stimulation of the supply side reduces, in my opinion, the arguments about its effect there is inflation, there are not many precise arguments, i mentioned it in soraya's program in march of last year , and various studies also show that the increase in salaries and the effects of the increase in the inflation rate are not significant in proportion to the positive effect they have on people's livelihood. very well, dear lady. reading this pricing model , how do you see this model? why don't we have a special formula for this issue that every year
3:25 pm
without any worries, this issue of salary increase is taken into account anyway, you see, the bargaining structure is one of the common methods in the world, that is, after all, there are different ways to determine the hand in the world. one is bargaining, the other is determining the formula , and the other is using the opinion of economic experts , that is, they prepare an advisory team of the client committee , and in some cases, the central government directly determines the salary, but the bargaining structure is correct, so to speak. it is the usual way in the world, but in countries that have really strong labor unions , see now in article 167 of our labor law, only the labor union of the islamic council has the right to vote. if mr. tajik kenshon is certified , we have all kinds of so-called labor unions , which can also mean that they should be in the council.
3:26 pm
great job, be present. being in the determination of wages and having the right to vote, this is a matter in itself that is finally causing a deviation in the determination of the hand and dissatisfaction, why are not the other groups? the rest of the groups are not, considering that when the law was drafted, there was only one labor organization, the islamic council of labor. but in the sixth chapter of the labor law, we have 3 legal organizations. trade union of workers of the islamic republic of iran, assembly of representatives of workers of the islamic republic of iran and supreme councils of islamic work of the country. we have 3 organizations, but when the legislator was writing, reviewing the law, he had a trade union organization. after the revolution, there were other organizations.
3:27 pm
coming according to the sixth chapter of the labor law and practically considering that only the names of the councils appear in the supreme labor council, three labor representatives who must be from three organizations, only from one organization, and other labor representatives do not have the right to vote, that is, two other organizations are present. without the right to vote, very well, mr. babaei , chairman of the social commission of the islamic council, greetings to you. hello, i am polite to you mr. maader and all the dear viewers and all those who watch the good program will listen . thank you very much for your service. mr. ba 17, i also congratulate you on the cooperation week. however, the issue of amendment is article 41 of the labor law, which
3:28 pm
is being done. a worker in the supreme labor council and mrs. azizkhani, an expert at the majlis research center , regarding the fact that labor representatives do not have the right to vote in different councils, does this law need to be updated or how will it be? workers' representatives. yes, you see, in any case , the representatives of the workers have a difference on the issue that , as you can see, there should be a consensus in the labor debates, but the fact that the workers do not have the right to vote in the so-called work council , but they do have the right to vote, but look, we are having a discussion now. what exists is that the combination of this board or councils is actually against the workers, for example, 3 representatives of the government, 3 representatives of the employer, 3
3:29 pm
representatives. kargar well, these three representatives of kargar , now it's just about who will introduce which organization , some people say here, in my opinion, they are the priority. i don't know which of these organizations is the next issue , but the important thing is that the government itself is a big fraud , you see, the government itself claims that it actually wants the workers to do this task, it claims why it wants to finally have more than, for example, 7,80,000 workers. in the form of corporate forces , he says, "i don't want the current cost to be increased because it has expensive costs, so the current cost should not be increased, what is he doing with the documents and documents because he arranges them, it comes from the capacity of the same law that i am saying , according to the tax, according to some kind of response." actually, it is taking from the pockets of the workers of the country the real issue doesn't follow, that's why we now have three coffee shops that are in their place . now the traveler
3:30 pm
is aware of the benefits and problems of coffee shops all over the country. high, for example, high 121 , but in our country it does not even reach 5%, which means that we are still up to the basic standards of the world, because all the prices of the goods that we have today , we offer to the people are the result of the efforts of those who are playing with their lives, their difficulties have become smaller. their lives have been destroyed and they are spending themselves on work they produce and equalize. but in fact, when mazandaranian says , when he says, "where have you been, sir , when have you been?" after all, i have other problems. in any case, an increase in wages based on inflation can cause the employer to retrench , see if this happens, if you see it , it is possible, but see how many percent, today, finally
3:31 pm
, the supply and demand of labor in our country, we parliamentarians are going to the settlements. service in banks economically, i say from bonggah, the first problem is that he says that i have a skilled labor force, and then he says, for example , that my workers are being adjusted. from this, it comes down to the matter . what does he say that i have a lack of skilled labor or is it an excuse ? yes, maybe a company in a certain part of the country. if this happens, we can't guarantee that it has happened somewhere . we have 70,000, for example, 60 to 60, we now have 60 to more than 250 companies . he is working in khatshimi, sorry, but if they bring the power to you, find their basic rights and reduce them find out, i am being recruited. who said that they are doing this? these are the government's excuses. the government will eventually
3:32 pm
go away on its own. mr. zorian, you have suggested, we say that we need to amend this , sir, the government must have a supply in line with the inflation , there is no problem, the government will give the inflation when it is 40 to 58, the government itself announces point by point , 58 even sometimes 65 percent. let us come and pay the worker's wages, for example, 12, 13, 20 percent you believe that there should be a salary increase.
