A lawmaker looking into the alleged illegal salary deductions from salaries of Isabela Electric Cooperative workers has demanded an explanation from executives of a foundation where the deducted wages go to.
Dy explained during the investigation that the contributions were allegedly for the rehabilitation of lines, power restoration, and addressing shortages of electrical materials in other electric cooperatives.
Dy expressed bewilderment as to why employees were being burdened with such responsibilities and forced to make payments. In a joint affidavit filed by Iselco-I employees, it was revealed that rank and file employees were being deducted P100 monthly without their consent, while supervisors were deducted P150, department heads P200, general managers P500, and the board of directors P200.
