MEVGAL is a company which operates in the Greek dairy industry. It employs 1,100 workers of all specialities. It is the 3rd largest company in the dairy industry and it exports to E.U. countries. MEVGAL dairy company has got seven factories, in Athens, Thessaloniki, Heraklion, Larissa, Xanthi, Katerini, Halkidiki and two subsidiaries in Volos and Chania.
The workers in the MEVGAL factory in Athens are on strike for 10 days, demanding their accrued wages of four months that the employer owes them.
The last General Assembly held with great participation and a unanimous decision was taken for the continuation of their strike struggle until the payment of all the accrued wages by the company. The workers are determined to continue their struggle until they will win and to throw away the employer’s efforts to blackmail their return to work without the satisfaction of their fair request.
PAME salutes the MEVGAL workers who give a hard but proud struggle and calls the trade unions to express their class-oriented solidarity.
