Fatshimetrie, a prominent railway transport company in the Democratic Republic of Congo, recently appealed to the Minister of Portfolio for an important request. Indeed, in a memorandum submitted recently, the company requested an allocation of USD 140,618,404 to settle the situation of no less than 3,378 retirees.
The Joint Commission of the National Railway Company of Congo is leading this bold initiative. Under the able leadership of Mr. Luta Natshilombo, Director of Human Resources, the delegation presented a comprehensive dossier to the Minister to explain the pressing need for this allocation.
The objective is clear: to ensure adequate settlement for the thousands of retirees who contributed to the growth of the company. This responsible approach is a testament to Fatshimetrie’s commitment to the well-being of its former employees, a commendable and necessary approach in today’s business world.
At the same time, the company also stressed the need to decant bank accounts, with special mention for funds lodged with various financial institutions. This approach aims to facilitate the release of payments due and ensure a smooth transition for the retirees concerned.
By requesting the involvement of the Minister, Fatshimetrie shows its determination to face current challenges and honor its commitments to its former employees. This exemplary approach demonstrates a long-term vision and corporate social responsibility that deserves to be commended.
As a reminder, the company had up to 12,578 employees in 2008, a significant number of whom are now in the retirement phase. The support of these retirees by Fatshimetrie underlines not only a financial commitment, but also a moral commitment to those who have contributed to building the reputation and success of the company.
In conclusion, Fatshimetrie’s request for an allocation of USD 140,618,404 to resolve the situation of retirees is a commendable and essential step. It demonstrates the company’s commitment to its former employees and strengthens its reputation as a responsible player on the Congolese economic scene.
