    In line with the Labor Code of the Republic of Armenia, the
    RA Government, the Armenian Trade Unions Confederation and the
    All-Republican Union of Armenian Employers signed a collective
    agreement on extra guarantees and joint action for the streamlining
    of welfare- and employment-related relations. The agreement was signed
    by RA Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan, President of the Armenian Trade
    Unions Confederation Edward Tumasyan and Chairman of the All-Republican
    Union of Armenian Employers Arsen Ghazaryan.

    The collective agreement provides for sustainable development of
    social and employment-related relations which in turn will promote
    employment, dignified labor, social partnership and social cohesion
    throughout the country.

    The agreement is supposed to help design and implement labor- and
    social protection-related policies, ensure broader social partnership
    participation, as well as build up institutional and functional
    capacity for domestic employers and trade unions.

    To ensure proper compliance with contractual obligations, a special
    commission will be set up on the principle of parity.

    Extending c ongratulations on the signing of the agreement, Prime
    Minister Tigran Sargsyan said in particular: "This is a long-awaited
    arrangement which stems from numerous key principles stipulated in
    international conventions.

    It is supposed to provide for cohesion in our joint action. We thereby
    undertake to cooperate and hold consultations on a regular basis. This
    is a burning issue, especially as seen against the background
    of the ongoing global crisis as employment grows into the threat
    number one all over the world. Social tensions tend to grow amidst
    declining economy, and this very factor gives extra significance to
    this agreement. Today's signing indicates that the parties are well
    aware of the threats facing Armenia and are prepared to address these
    serious problems with joint efforts and coordinated policy."

    The Prime Minister appreciated the contribution made by the Ministry of
    Labor and Social Affairs to the drafting of this collective agreement.

    The signing of the agreement was appreciated either by Edward Tumasyan,
    Arsen Ghazaryan and RA Minister of Labor and Social Affairs Arsen
    Hambardzumyan.

    The All-Republican Collective Agreement will be effective up till
    June 30, 2012.
