The staff of “Erdenes Tavan Tolgoi” (ETT) have announced a sit-in strike. The industrial action began three days ago. The staff informed: “We are now on our Day Three of our sit-in.. The heads of the company did not provide us with official information. Today they will have a meeting at 17.00 pm. If this issue is not resolved after this meeting, we will change our sit-in to the next step”.

The Australian company and previous employer transferred 200 members of staff to a Chinese company. But the Chinese company, however, has guaranteed their employment for only one year. This decision is seen as undermining the life.
