Electricite du Liban's contract workers forced employees at the company’s headquarters in Mar Mikhael to evacuate the first floor, the National News Agency reported on Tuesday.

The NNA said that the contract employees cut off the electricity on the floor.

EDL contract employees have been protesting for the past two weeks against the cabinet’s failure to approve their full-time employment draft law.

The Committee of EDL Contract Workers and Collectors said in a statement that some employees have been contract workers for over 20 years.

After all after 20 years of doing "nothing" on a freelance basis, one is rightfully entitled to a full-time job to keep doing that.
That's well spent tax money!
