TEHRAN, August 17 (NIPNA) – Workers temporarily laid off by Iran’s Takht Jamshid Petrochemical Co. during the recent war are being brought back into employment under a staffing agreement coordinated with the Petrochemical Special Economic Zone Organization.

The initiative follows an agreement between the company’s management and the Labor and Employment Services Department of the Petrochemical Special Economic Zone Organization, based on a decision by the Labor Commission of Mahshahr County Governor’s Office.

A number of local workers had been temporarily laid off amid operational restrictions and disruptions affecting industrial activity during the war. The regional employment authority began pursuing their reinstatement from the outset, eventually securing the company’s agreement to rehire the affected workers.

Under the arrangement, eligible local workers will return through manpower-supply contracts, with recruitment determined by the company’s organizational structure, workforce requirements and available positions across its various operating units.

The initiative is intended to protect local employment while allowing the company to retain access to experienced and specialized workers as production and operational activities continue.

The Labor and Employment Services Department said it will continue coordinating between employers and current or laid-off workers within the framework of labor laws, with the aim of protecting employment and supporting the continuity of industrial operations in the region.

The return of the workers will also enable Takht Jamshid Petrochemical to once again draw on the experience and technical capabilities of employees familiar with its operations, according to the organization.
