However, it was clearly stated by the Employment Office that these reasons should be regarded as untrue and that these three employees should be dismissed only because they demanded a new salary regime from the company on the basis of a new announcement by the Minister of Social and Health Administration of 28 March 1994 on the rules governing salary and working conditions.
