According to the legislation, the decision was sent to Zaur Huseynov, the chairman of “Baku Metropoliteni” CJSC, in an official letter, and a commission (working group) of equal numbers with the participation of the representatives appointed by the employer began to operate within the next 10 days.

Since the metropolitan area covers a very wide area and profile, intensive work was done on the preparation of the contract, and the final project document was prepared. Experienced and competent specialists were also involved in this process, the requirements of laws, the best examples of local and international practice were examined and taken into account.

In accordance with the requirements of the Labor Code, the project was discussed at the general meeting – conference, organized by MIHI, where all areas of the collective are represented, and accepted by voting.
