/PanARMENIAN.Net/ With the implementation of labor rights, the
principle of exploitation still works in the republic, RA Ombudsman
Armen Harutyunyan said.

A large number of employers are viewing citizens as a means to gain
profit. As result of an inspection, it was found out that public
transport drivers are forced to work from 6.30 am to 11.30 am. Some
AMD114 million were not paid for overtime work," he said.

He also said that one of public transport organizations functions
without a license and only 4 of its 24 drivers possess essential
documents.
