Managua. The Confederation of Workers of Energy of Nicaragua, COTRAENIC, active counterpart of the Union Observatory Project, publicly denounces that after almost a year of tenacious and silent struggle at the international level, most of the workers of Gas Natural Fenosa, known in Nicaragua by the trade name DISNORTE-DISSUR, do not perceive the minimum wage established by law for the electricity sector.



Not complying with the minimum wage regulations is really grave anywhere in the world. In the case of Nicaragua, we can certainly assert that the situation is deeply serious. The International Monetary Fund and other International Credit Agencies classify Nicaragua as the country with the lowest GDP per capita in the Western Hemisphere, only outranked by Haiti.
