YEREVAN. – It is no longer possible to pay senseless salaries at Nairit chemical rubber plant of Armenia’s capital city Yerevan, stated Energy and Natural Resources Minister Yervand Zakharyan.

He recalled that the Nairit employees’ salaries are paid from the proceeds of Armenia’s state-run energy companies: Yerevan Thermal Power Plant, and Vorotan Hydro Cascade.

“But the plant employees’ complaints and their demands are completely fair. Both the President and the PM are seriously concerned about the situation,” the minister also announced.

In Zakharyan’s words, the respective working group will have to prepare, in a short period of time, a package of recommendations on the future of the plant.

The minister noted that 2,261 employees are registered at Nairit, which includes 425 people from the management and 361 specialists.

The Nairit Plant CJSC has ceased production since April 2010. Three years later, however, it was informed that Russian Rosneft company had programs toward making investments in the plant.
