Human Rights Ministry employees complain of mistreatment [Archives:2006/925/Local News]

SANA'A, March 1 ) More than 17 employees working on a contractual basis at the Human Rights Ministry have not received their salaries for more than three months, nor have they receive any other entitlements.

No reasons were given as to why the employees were treated this way. Employees could not claim their rights for fear of exposure to penalties or other bad consequences.

Regular Human Rights Ministry employees complained that sums amounting to YR 5,000 are deducted regularly from their salaries without reason. It is strange to see such human rights abuses and mistreatment in the Human Rights Ministry, which is supposed to be an ideal example for other ministries in dealing with such matters.

Regular employees and those working on a contractual basis appealed to Human Rights Minister Dr. Khadijah Al-Haisami to immediately end their sufferings and pay their salaries in full at the end of each month.
