Employees of the Bouira land agency in Algeria staged a sit-in to show solidarity with a colleague who was accused by the agency's director of not fulfilling his professional obligations. The colleague in question has special needs, and the protesters claim the director did not take his health into account. The protesters described their colleague as a model employee, married with two children.
The protesters held up signs that read "No to arbitrariness towards a person with special needs" and "Solidarity with brother Zakoub Toufik!" They claim the director's reasons for filing a complaint against the colleague are not valid. The director's management has been criticized for months, and the employees are on strike to demand his departure due to the agency's critical financial situation.
The employees are determined to have the director removed from his position, citing poor management, unjust sanctions, and arbitrary decisions against staff members. They had previously appealed to the wali in a letter dated November 30, explaining their refusal to reconcile with the director. The employees had requested that the director implement a plan to restart stalled projects, but this was not done.
The agency's employees have been in a state of unrest due to the director's actions, and the latest incident has further escalated tensions. The protesters believe that the director's actions are unjust and that he has not taken into account the needs of his employees. They are demanding his immediate removal from the agency.
According to the employees, previous attempts by the wilaya authorities to reconcile them with the director have failed. The employees are adamant that the director's departure is the only solution to the agency's problems. They claim that the director has not implemented any of the agreements signed with him.
The employees of the Bouira land agency are united in their demand for the director's removal, and they are prepared to take further action if their demands are not met. They believe that the director's actions will lead to the agency's bankruptcy and the loss of jobs for all employees.
The situation at the Bouira land agency remains tense, with employees determined to see the director removed from his position. The authorities have yet to respond to the employees' demands, and it remains to be seen how the situation will unfold. The employees are resolute in their determination to achieve their goal.
