The Daily Star - EDL contract workers briefly besiege office of company’s general director, June 18 2012

BEIRUT: A group of about 20 contract workers at the Beirut headquarters of Electricite Du Liban briefly besieged Monday the office of EDL's general director Kamal Hayek.

Security sources told The Daily Star that the contract workers went up to Hayek's office, located on the 13th floor of the EDL headquarters, surrounded it and prevented members of a committee from going into a meeting scheduled for midday.

The sources said a police force dispatched from the Internal Security Forces Beirut headquarters managed to disperse the protesters.

Parliament’s joint committees passed a draft law Thursday allowing all EDL contract workers to take examinations that would give them the chance to become full-time employees.
