Local Government to Secure Worker Salaries through Hospital Sale

In the Atakum district of Samsun, an important decision was made during the municipal council's meeting in November. In the council, articles proposing the sale of some municipal properties for the purpose of paying SGK and tax debts were unanimously approved. These articles also cover critical points such as the transfer of the Ek Service Building of the district's Education and Research Hospital at its public value.

AK Party council members brought up a notable issue during the session. The relevant members stated that the salaries of some workers have not been paid for two to three months and emphasized that this situation needs to be resolved urgently. The salaries of public employees, who provide employment for a significant portion of the population, are of great importance for the vitality of the local economy. Therefore, it was expressed that necessary steps should be taken to ensure salary payments.

The sales of properties by the municipality will not only help pay off debts but will also contribute to securing workers' salaries. This process is considered an important step towards maintaining the financial discipline of local governments, as it will be carried out without any cuts from the general budget.

Such actions by local governments are essential for financial sustainability. These steps, aimed at gaining public trust and ensuring uninterrupted public services, undoubtedly hold great significance for each citizen. Steps to be taken in the upcoming periods for reducing debts and ensuring the regular payment of employees' salaries are eagerly awaited.
