#Khartoum Cleaners.. just demands and due rights #رتوت

out of context

Sanitation workers in Khartoum state carried out a protest stand in front of the local presidency last Tuesday, and demanded an improvement in their wages and conditions of service by concluding contracts that include all rights related to salary details, bonuses, health insurance and tools for protection from work risks.

 

Without finding a listening ear or even just paying attention, responding to the demands of the cleaners is inseparable from the concern for the issue of the environment in all its aspects, and neglecting their demands reveals a mindset that is indifferent to human rights and their need to live in a humane environment, and everyone who monitors the conditions of the cleaners and the environment in which they work It stands on the reality of social and economic injustice to a group of workers who are more entitled to care, social security and protection from the work hazards facing them, especially since most of them collect waste directly with their hands, which exposes them to fatal diseases.

The issue of cleaners is a political, social, and human rights issue that concerns all citizens. These workers carry out work related to the life and health of all members of society, and if it were not for the efforts they make in inhumane conditions, our lives would have deteriorated further, and in fact I do not expect that there will be a bad environment anywhere in the world. The land is more than in the center of Khartoum, especially in the rainy season when rainwater mixes with sewage and workers find it increasingly difficult to do their hard work during the fall.

The issue of the environment is integrated, and at its heart is the rights of workers, and it does not receive enough attention from the coup authority, as it ignores all the rights of citizens in one package. Among the priorities of the opposition work is to pressure the authority to reveal the resources directed to environmental health in the localities, in particular those allocated to workers’ salaries, and to set up mechanisms, and to monitor their work. It is important to coordinate between social initiatives concerned with the environment in many neighborhoods that seek to protect the environment by focusing on hygiene, and housewives play a role I am active in this activity, and I know in many neighborhoods that women are keen to deal with the cleaners with all cooperation and understanding of their harsh conditions, to build and resist from within the neighborhoods and to put the cause of the cleaners and their support in mind.
