Hakan Üredi Addresses Constitutional Issues in Telecommunications

Hakan Üredi, the president of the Turkish Cypriot Public Transport, Communication, Information Technologies and Telecommunications Employees Union (Tel-Sen), highlighted that while constitutional issues related to the fiber optic protocol have been resolved, other challenges for the union remain.

He stated that the Attorney General's office evaluated both the main and supplementary protocols together to ensure compliance with the constitution. However, he emphasized that this does not eliminate Tel-Sen's ongoing issues.

Üredi pointed out that the union still has various unresolved matters, which could affect the efforts to protect workers' rights. He added that employees continue to be impacted by developments in the sector, and these issues need urgent attention.

Moreover, he argued that necessary steps should be taken to develop and expand the fiber optic infrastructure. Üredi stated that the telecommunications sector must be aligned with modern technologies.

Tel-Sen will continue its struggle to protect and enhance the rights of its workers, emphasizing the importance of collaboration with all stakeholders in this process. He expressed that the union will persist in its efforts to safeguard the interests of its members and all employees in the sector.

In conclusion, Üredi acknowledged that resolving constitutional issues is a significant step, but stressed that it is not sufficient on its own; other problems within the sector also need to be addressed.
