Iranian Government to Determine Status of 700,000 Contractual Employees
In a significant administrative development, the Iranian government has announced it is now formally tasked with deciding the future of a large segment of the national workforce.
Widespread Identification of Contract Staff
Alaeddin Rafizadeh, the Vice President and Head of the Administrative and Recruitment Organization, has confirmed that approximately 700,000 contractual employees have been identified across the country. This comprehensive survey marks a critical first step in a broader governmental plan to address and organize the employment status of this substantial workforce.
Awaiting a Governmental Decision
Rafizadeh emphasized that the current phase is one of deliberation. “We are now waiting for the government to make a decision regarding how to manage and organize these human resources,” he stated, highlighting that the matter is now a top priority on the state’s agenda. This indicates a move from the identification stage to a period of high-level policy formulation.
Execution on Hold Pending Final Directive
Further clarifying the process, the Vice President noted that immediate executive actions concerning these employees are currently on hold. The administration is awaiting the final and conclusive decision from the government before any operational measures can be implemented, ensuring a structured and unified approach to the matter.
