Shafaq News / The Finance Committee in the Iraqi Parliament revealed, on Thursday, its intention to prepare a special plan to unify the file of the salary scale of employees, indicating that its implementation costs 10 trillion dinars.
The member of the committee, Moeen Al-Kazimi, explained to Shafak News Agency that the Parliamentary Finance Committee had earlier hosted the government committee concerned with the file of unifying the salary scale of state employees, and that it is working to find the necessary financial liquidity to achieve this unification.
He added that the number of employees exceeds 4 million, and that the unification of their salaries requires about 10 trillion dinars, which requires financial allocations and the amendment of the salary scale.
Al-Kazimi pointed out that the Council of Ministers is the entity concerned with amending the salary scale by approving a law on salaries or the Civil Service Law and sending it to the House of Representatives.
About 70% of Iraq’s estimated five million employees are calling for a change in the salary scale due to what they see as “injustice and unfairness” compared to their peers in other ministries that give much higher allowances. Employees have threatened to continue the demonstrations if the procrastination and procrastination of their rights have continued since 2008.
The capital Baghdad and a number of governorates witnessed periodic demonstrations demanding the amendment of the salary scale, as thousands of employees went out in mass demonstrations heading to the Green Zone in the center of the capital demanding the amendment of the salary scale in light of the high annual inflation rate.
Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani describes the file of amending the salary scale as a “sensitive matter”, stressing working to “reach a formula for achieving justice.”
