After Levan Chikvaidze was appointed general director of the “Georgian Post”, he dismissed more than 120 workers and replaced them with friends and relatives. Workers with fixed-term contracts often had to accept one-month contracts instead of one-year or two-year contracts they had previously. This is a violation of a valid collective agreement. As a result, the Trade Union of the Workers of the Postal Service launched a complaint with the Tbilisi City Court. In retaliation for the court case, Levan Chikvaidze started to target union members by not renewing their fixed-term contracts.
