Sasalak Sasbancha, president of the SSO's labour union, said Friday that about 4,000 non-civil servant staff members work for the SSO along with civil servant employees. Also, non-civil servant SSO employees who have retired within the past three years have not received any pension payments. Each year between 30 and 40 non-civil servant SSO employees retire and this number will continue to swell every year. The ratio of non-civil servant SSO staff members to civil servants is 7:10. Both Mr Jarin and Mr Suradej pledged to ensure non-civil servant SSO employees will receive good work benefits.
