On 25th December 2018, workers of the crop industry and animal husbandry in the city of Mogan, Ardabil province, Iran, held an assembly to protest the transfer of their workplace to the private sector.
Over 500 workers attended the assembly and raised concerns about the future of the corporation and their jobs. Given the experience of workers in other industries, the workers know that a takeover of their workplace by the private sector means the imposition of “slave-like” working conditions and further expulsions of workers.
The city’s governor attended the assembly and promised the workers to fulfil their demands.
The corporation used to have 5000 employees but in the past 10 years 3000 workers were sacked.
