Justice Sector Employees Stage Protests in Fes Over Delayed Implementation of Agreement

In an escalatory move, the local office of the Democratic Justice Union in Fes organized protest sit-ins outside the Palace of Justice and the Administrative Court of Appeals.

These protests were held in response to the ongoing delay in the implementation of the Basic Law, which was agreed upon between the Ministry of Justice and the union. The law, intended to improve working conditions for employees in the sector and provide additional rights, has yet to be enforced despite the agreement being reached some time ago.

Key demands of the protesters:

  • Immediate implementation of the Basic Law: Protesters view the delay in enforcing the agreed-upon law as a disregard for their legitimate rights.
  • Improved working conditions: Employees in the justice sector are calling for urgent improvements to their deteriorating working conditions.
  • Strengthened legal guarantees: The staff is also demanding stronger legal protections to secure their employment rights.

Protesters’ reactions: During the sit-ins, protesters held banners denouncing the Ministry of Justice’s failure to uphold its commitments. They expressed their readiness to escalate protests further if their demands continue to be ignored.

This step reflects the growing discontent among justice sector employees, who view the delay in implementing agreements as an attack on their rights and a blow to the credibility of social dialogue.

Will the ministry intervene? The pressing question now is whether the Ministry of Justice will respond to these protests and resolve the situation, or if it will continue to postpone the implementation of the Basic Law, potentially worsening the crisis.
