Training-İş Chairman Kadem Özbay reacted to the protocol as “The obligation of the Ministry of Nationwide Training is to not say ‘You’re a employee, keep a employee’ to our kids”. Stating that MESEM, which was established in order that “kids don’t lack a diploma and be taught a career”, was “deviated from its objective” by the order of the president, Özbay famous that “the system during which college students go to highschool for 4 days with low-cost labor is the brand new title of kid labor”.
“FUTURE WILL BE Spent”
Özbay mentioned, “The protocols present how public sources are donated to pro-capital as a substitute of fixing the issues of schooling.”
“In these markets, the place nothing however human labor is reasonable, the labor of scholars who ought to be at college will likely be offered. A number of the adults who had been sentenced to work right here as a result of they didn’t obtain coaching providers on time will likely be proven at MESEM, and half of the minimal wage will likely be paid to those workers by the Ministry of Nationwide Training, thereby decreasing the monetary burden of chain shops with public sources.
Özbay defined the operation of the protocol as follows: “College students enrolled in MESEM will go to work in a market chain referred to as co-capital, on the times and hours they need to be at college. The Ministry of Nationwide Training can pay 30 p.c of the minimal wage to apprentice college students and 50 p.c of the minimal wage to journeyman college students. Youngsters will spend the enjoyment of life in a grocery chain with the slogan ‘Spend by no means ends’. College students will likely be exploited, and the ministry will name it success.
