Dozens of young Algerian workers, employed through the pre-employment program, protested in front of the Bouira Youth Employment Directorate on Thursday. They demanded payment of their January and February salaries, which have not been disbursed. The protesters expressed frustration and anger over the repeated delays in salary payments, particularly at the beginning of the year or during social rentrée periods.
The protesters criticized the Bouira Employment Directorate for lack of communication and failure to provide explanations for the delays. They stated that despite numerous protests, no justification or information has been provided. The young workers are now in March, still waiting for their January and February salaries. This situation has become recurrent in the wilaya, causing significant hardship for the affected workers.
In addition to the salary delays, the protesters denounced the slow pace of integration into permanent positions. Although announced in November, no young worker has been officially installed in a permanent post. The protesters reported that they were only asked to fill out a file and submit it to the relevant directorate, but no further action has been taken.
The protesters have been facing difficulties due to the delayed integration process. They claimed that no administration in the wilaya has finalized the procedures for integration, despite their eight years of experience. This has created uncertainty and concern about their future employment prospects.
Following the protest, representatives of the young workers were received by the Bouira Employment Director. He reassured them that the delayed salaries would be paid at the beginning of the week. The Director's assurance brought some relief to the protesters, who were worried about their financial situation.
The protest highlights the challenges faced by young Algerian workers employed through the pre-employment program. The delays in salary payments and integration into permanent positions have caused significant hardship and uncertainty. The situation requires urgent attention from the relevant authorities to address the concerns of these young workers.
The Bouira Employment Directorate will need to take concrete steps to resolve the issues affecting the young workers. This includes disbursing the delayed salaries and expediting the integration process into permanent positions. The authorities must also communicate effectively with the affected workers to restore trust and confidence in the employment program.
