Dr. Laetitia Muadi called for not influencing labor inspectors in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. She introduced Finance Minister LikundeR as a loyal executor of President Félix Tshisekedi's directives. Muadi stated that no category of civil servants was currently receiving their full salary scale, specifically citing university professors, teachers, doctors, and nurses. According to her, the government was gradually adjusting salaries based on the state budget and treasury. She denied that the president ordered, during the 94th Cabinet meeting, the payment of 100% of their salary scale to labor inspectors and controllers. She indicated that presidential instructions were instead focused on accelerating the reform of the General Labor Inspection (IGT), the monthly payment of salaries, and the administrative and financial autonomy of the agency. Muadi stated that these measures had been implemented: a new IGT had been established, salaries had been integrated into the liquidation state for the fourth quarter, and operating and installation credits were included in the 2027 finance bill. She specified that inspectors and controllers were receiving 30% of their salary scale and were demanding 100%. According to her, the government had opted to increase remuneration in phases, as it had done for other categories of civil servants, depending on budgetary means. #RDC #Travail #Syndicats (translated)

The police officer had been charged with violence resulting in mutilation or permanent disability and placed under judicial supervision. The publication added that students and teachers at the Château-d’Épluches high school remained in shock.
