Chairman of Iran’s IMIDRO steps down
By Trend
Mehdi Karbasian, the chairman of the Iranian Mines and Mining Industries Development and Renovation Organization (IMIDRO), resigned on Thursday, Fars news agency reported.
According to the report, Karbasian quit his post as the head of
IMIDRO after a new legislation on retired employees was ratified by
the country.
The important new retirement law, approved by the Guardian Council
and enacted by the Iranian parliament, could effectively put an end
to the decades-long practice of the re-employment of some
government workers upon their retirement.
Karbasian announced his resignation during a recent meeting in
Tehran with IMIDRO’s senior officials.
He added that Ardeshir Sa'ad Mohammadi, the deputy of IMIDRO Mines
and Mining Industries Development, will replace him
temporarily.
IMIDRO is a major state-owned holding company active in the mining
sector in Iran. IMIDRO has 8 major companies and 55 operational
subsidiaries active in steel, aluminum, copper, cement and mineral
exploitation fields.
