opportunity to pledge its solidarity and support to the10thof JuneStrikebythe
PAME ouraffiliateinGreece.
We fully support the struggles waged by workers“Against Anti-labour bill” which seeks to reverse workers’ rights among others,rights to an 8 hour working day, rights to strike and collective bargaining. The bill also seeks to increase working hours without overtime pay, and making workers to work on Sundays, a day dedicated for rest to all workers. We condemn these neo-liberal bill to passed against the will the Greek working class especially to public service workers most of which are in the frontline in fighting COVID 19 pandemic.
TUI-PS&A view this as a serious contravention of the ILO conventions by the Greek government.We therefore stand hand in hand with our members of the PAME during their strike and urge the Greek government to listen to workers and respond positively to their demands stop the passing of this draconian bill.
TUI-PS&A and all our affiliates around the world will be supporting the STRIKE calling upon the government to put its effort in supporting workers during this pandemic so the country can go back to normalcy
Forward
to Victory!!!
Long
Live PAME
