These phones have either stopped working, become outdated, or cannot handle the application’s demands.
The federation further stated that they have raised this issue through various channels over the past few months without any resolution. Furthermore, the workers’ meagre honorarium prevents them from purchasing phones on their own, they said.
In their memorandum, the federation set a two-month deadline for the authorities to address their demands, warning of a potential strike if unmet.
