The Committee of
EDL Contract Workers and Collectors responded to the company’s director general
Kamal Hayek on Monday by saying that the contract workers are not the cause behind the expected
power outage; “it is a decision taken deliberately by the company’s directors”.
The committee stressed that the contract workers in power plants are still doing
their job.
In a statement,
the committee said that the company’s directors wanted to hold the workers
responsible for the power cuts, “which is totally unfounded since the order to turn
off or re-operate plants is issued by the Board of Directors. The committee added
that this scenario reflects attempts to make people believe that the contract
workers are responsible for this blackout.
