Honorable President of Iran Chamber of Guilds, Mr. Saeed Mambini
Greetings
According to the orders issued, the market will be closed until April 20
A large number of bazaars have taken voluntary or forced closure since March 10, 1998. But guilds and marketers are waiting for the other end of the scale of closure of business units
Are government employees willing to receive half of their salaries in April? No way, but they demand the same salary as last year with a 15% increase in the budget bill if all or most of them are at home.
We want the Chamber of Guilds of the country to explicitly ask the government to pay the wages of cooperation and housing of the market workers without any reduction or caste.
The last days of the year, the market was closed due to #Corona.
Seeing the faces of the shopkeepers sitting in front of the closed shops breaks everyone’s heart. One year of spending and enduring bad economic conditions in the hope of Eid night and a one-time closing of the market
This was not #corona, but a heavenly calamity like floods and earthquakes.
#Corona was worse for guilds than floods and earthquakes, because in case of floods and earthquakes, some guilds could get part of the damage from the insurance.
Again, we ask the Chamber of Trades of Iran to legally force the government to consider at least every business with a tax file as an employee and to receive their salaries in parallel with the holidays and stay at home.
Because the promise of reducing taxes, money, water, electricity and gas or delaying the payment of installments is not compensation for the housing losses of this group.
The government knows very well that the guilds whose shops were open due to the economic conditions could not continue their guild activities, let alone close the shops and stay at home.
Really, without the support of the government, the market business cannot afford to stay at home after April 15
We are the only section of the society that the government has no regard for, municipal taxes and fees, the right to obtain a business license every year from the government has been taken from the business, now it is the turn of the government to understand the business and the market people in this critical situation.
Summary
The government should help to pay the cost of the cooperation of the trade unions to stop the spread of the dreaded corona virus in the market
We request the follow-up of this issue from the relevant authorities of the unions, the Chamber of Guilds of the cities, the Department of Industry and Mining, the Supreme Board of Supervision of the Guilds and the Chamber of Guilds of Iran.
