Resolute response to dismissals
A 48-hour strike in one of the biggest dairy industry groups (FAGE) has been completed successfully.
The dismissals and the anti-labour plans of the employers met the dynamic response of FAGE workers who proceeded to a 48-hour strike on the basis of the decision of the industrial trade union that participates in PAME. The workers continue their struggle with determination against the dismissals of 22 of their colleagues by the employers under the pretext of the crisis. The efforts of the employers to intimidate the workers and prevent the strike have fallen flat. Workers have joined picket lines day and night.
The struggle for the reinstatement of the 22 workers is being continued. Tens of class oriented trade unions as well as the nationwide coordinating committee of workers in STAGE programmers, who are also in a process of militant mobilisations demanding stable and permanent work, have also expressed their solidarity with FAGE workers.
