Lawyers from PT IGN Banohara explained that they had met with representatives of the staff and with Kunto Nugroho, Interim Kendal Regent.
“The layoff letters have already been sent. We implemented the layoffs as of 31 December 2015,” said Banohara on Tuesday (5/01/2015).
Banohara added that there are about 360 employees of PT IGN. Given this decision to lay off staff, he has asked all employees to stop coming to work.
“We have already paid all four months of salaries that we owed to staff, including December. Meanwhile, salaries for September, October, and November will be transferred into employees’ accounts by 8 January,” he explained.
Meanwhile, Sugeng, a representative of the employees of PT IGN Cepiring, stated that the staff are rejecting the layoffs that the company is implementing. The reason is that the layoffs were only implemented unilaterally. He explained that, according to the law, layoffs should involve both parties.
“We will continue to come to work. This is because the layoffs that the company is implementing are not in line with procedures,” he said.
Sugeng hopes that there can still be good communication between the staff and the management of PT. IGN, in line with the Regent’s wishes.
With respect to this matter, Kunto Nugroho, Interim Kendal Regent, said that his office will not interfere with the layoffs of staff being implemented by the management of PT KGN.
However, he asked both parties to communicate with each other.
“The problem between the employees and the management is only due to a lack of communication. As a result, a lot of unclear information is getting through,” he explained.
