Parliament To Give Employees One-Month Paid Leave Starting Tomorrow
All parliament employees are receiving a one-month paid leave starting tomorrow, as per a decision signed off by Speaker of Parliament, Nabih Berri.
Journalist Timour Azhari reports that this decision is due to the destruction sustained by the parliament building, estimated at $5 million worth of damages, according to Secretary General Adnan Daher.
He also states that employees needed to hold sessions at other locations can be called back.
We’re not sure if this decision entails members of parliament, but then again, aren’t they always on paid leave?
