“We want to deny allegations from the publication of the Akta.ba portal. It is not true that Azel France releases “hundreds of workers” as stated there.
The fact is that Azel doo has made a decision to close 9 branches in the Federation of BiH, but also Republika Srpska, as well as the Brčko District. In these branches, a total of 21 workers will stay out of work. The reasons for closing the branches are purely economic in nature, ie. negative business result of these branches in 2024. years. The negative business result is caused by the growth of all costs due to inflationary movements including salary costs. In 2025. year, the minimum salary growth would be further increased costs in these branches and the business result would be even more negative, which is made up of the above decision. We want to emphasize that the future Azel doo is not questionable, that companies operate stably and to remain faithful to their customers, business partners and workers of this company as a safe and reliable partner, “they explained.
