Managing Director of Kachkanar GOK Alexei Kushnarev commented on the situation with the rally against the reduction of workers, which was organized today by the local trade union committee with the support of the Communist Party.

"The rally, which is announced today, in fact has nothing to do with the plant, this is the CPRF's view of the campaign to nominate the governors of the Sverdlovsk region," Kushnaryov said..

The head of the enterprise did not confirm the rumors about the dispersal to the rally of state employees.

Kushnarev added that the governor visited Kachkanarsky GOK in late April and gave an order to develop the enterprise. According to the head, today there can be no talk of cutting workers.

"Never heard the information about the reduction of 500 people. I talked with the team. All are professionals in their field. The situation is not easy, but you can transfer people inside the enterprise, but do not fire, "- said Kushnarev.

According to the head of GOK, the conflict at the enterprise is connected with a misunderstanding that arose between the management of the enterprise and the leaders of the trade union.

"For me, the trade union is the social department. Such a statement offended the head of the trade union committee. I proposed subsequently to channel the energy of the trade union into the working channel. There must be a reasonable position, not intrigues and manipulation of people, "Kushnaryov concluded..

Let's remind, Alexey Kushnarev has headed Kachkanarskij GOK in October, 2016.
