MINASYAN: EMPLOYER HAS NO RIGHT TO PUT PRESSURE ON EMPLOYEE
Thursday,

A citizen's opportunity to refuse to make a compulsory accumulative
contribution means that the law envisages a voluntary component and
cannot be mandatory, the deputy of ARF-Dashnaktsutyun faction Artsvik
Minasyan today during discussions of the Armenian government-submitted
bill on amendments to the Law on Accumulative Pension at the second
reading.
Addressing Minister of Labor and Social Affairs Artyom Asatryan, A.
Minasyan said the minister has to state from the parliament rostrum
that no employer has the right to put pressure on an employee.
"You have to state that if a citizen has written an application about
refusal to pay the compulsory pension contribution, the employer has
no right to put pressure on that employee," the ARFD deputy noted.
In his words, with the bill's adoption, Armenian citizens should
start defending their rights.
Minasyan also asked the parliament heads and the Armenian president
to draft the law and to sign it as soon as possible because the law
is adopted through bilateral concessions and "numerous citizens of
the republic await it".
The Constitutional Court of Armenia suspended on January 24 two clauses
of the Law on Accumulative Pensions - parts 3 of Articles 76 and 86
pending the court decision.
On April 2 the Constitutional Court announced its 64-page decision,
under which a number of articles of the Law were recognized as
unconstitutional and null.
