The bill relating to the merger of the National Social Security Fund (CNSS) and the National Fund of Social Insurance Organizations (CNOPS) continues to arouse disapproval and protest. The Democratic Confederation of Labor (CDT) strongly criticized the government’s action, “unilaterally and outside the methodology of social dialogue», to the approval of the law aimed at transferring the management of compulsory health insurance in the public sector from the CNOPS to the CNSS, reports Al Akhbar Tuesday, November 19.
The union considers that this decision constitutes “a new attack on the social gains of workers and the systematic continuation of the dismantling of all public social protection institutions».
In a press release published by its executive office, the union does not hesitate to accuse the government of “submit to lobbies which forced him to amend the medical coverage code for purely financial purposes“. The CDT calls on the government to include this bill in the social dialogue agenda, given the threats it represents for the achievements of millions of members and rights holders, relays Al Akhbar.
The press release underlines “that by taking a unilateral decision, outside the institution of social dialogue, the government opted for the capitalization of compulsory health insurance and thus reproduces the methods applied during the reform of pension funds as well that the presentation of the organic law on the right to strike before Parliament even before it is the subject of an agreement.
Approaches, continues the CDT, which aim to destroy freedom of expression and reduce the right to protest. “This behavior shows that the government intends not to implement the provisions of the agreement of April 30, 2022 by repeatedly postponing the holding of the social dialogue session in accordance with the charter of its institutionalization. concludes the CDT press release.
