The Silva Federation of Forestry Unions is organising today a large protest rally at the headquarters of the Ministry of the Environment, Watercourses and Forestry(MMAP), as the trade unionists are dissatisfied with a press campaign initiated by the minister of the environment, which they say is carried out in order to discredit the National Forest Authority and to publicly compromise Romsilva employees.
According to the trade union organisation, the main demands of the protesters are depoliticisation of the forestry bodies for forest management and their professionalisation; exempting the state forest administration from the application of corporate governance; he consultations with the trade unions as social partners of the MMAP, with a precautionary approach to the drawing up of pieces of legislation with an impact on the activity of Romsilva; the payment of outstanding compensations provided for under the Forestry Code; expenses related to the breeding and improvement of thoroughbred horses, for the administration of protected natural areas and for the protection of private forests.
Also today the forestry unions are organising a warning strike at the workplaces, without interrupting their activity, as a sign of protest.
