The public service broadcaster is celebrating its Radio and Television of Montenegro (RTCG) Day today, and its employees, in no small number, are suffering great injustice. This was stated by Snezana Radusinovic, a member of the negotiating team of the Public Service Employees' Union, during a press conference in front of the RTCG building.
According to her, CEO Boris Raonić and management are creating "an unbearable atmosphere of threat, fear and division."
She added that employees are being pressured to leave the union, and that they "lost 80 members this year."
"Anti-union discrimination continued during the negotiations, but it has continued and intensified in recent days after the Collective Agreement was agreed. A high percentage of women are targeted by revanchism," she said.
She added that the range of punitive measures is very wide.
"… The most drastic example is the activation of a written-off debt and the blocking of bank accounts of a colleague and all members of her family. This is a single mother of four children whose husband, a former journalist for this house, was killed on a work assignment eight years ago."
Her colleague Milena Janjušević said that during the negotiation meetings, they asked what the amount of 900.000 euros that was earmarked for a salary increase would be spent on.
"Why are variables being distributed secretly, which opens up a lot of room for misuse of 735.000 euros per year... We did not receive answers, but we did receive fines and pressure with a clear message that these issues will not be forgiven," she said.
