After medical check-ups, hundreds of ArmenTel employees have been
dismissed. In this regard, many of them complained to the editorial
office of Panorama.am. Naira Nazaryan, temporary person responsible
for press, told our office that the contracts with the employees were
cancelled according to law. In her words, the employment contracts were
terminated based on medical conclusions. Nazaryan pointed to part 1,
article 113 and part 3, article 4 and 120 of the Armenian Labor Code
which define the conditions under which the employer may terminate
the contract.
The official of ArmenTel said that the requirement of the medical
commission is a mandatory factor for the employer. In case of violating
the instructions, employers may be called for responsibility. In
short, she said their company followed the legislation of the Republic
of Armenia.
Naira Nazaryan said: "The company did not do anything out of air."
The victims of ArmenTel believe that "the business in the company,
mildly said, is bad and they are trying to get rid of employees."
