According to the public
relations of Ilam Petrochemical Plant, Hassan Najafi Semnani told a press conference
on Tuesday that 91% of the company's staff were from locals and more than 1400
people are working directly or under contract in the project.
He said that the olefin

country, was about to be launched after 19 years.
The official said the
project was scheduled to come online two months earlier which ran into certain unforeseen
problems.
Najafi further noted receiving the Green Industry
Award for the second year in a row in the field of environmental issues by his company.
