The Trade Union Organisations, Federations, Regional Trade Unions and Industrial Trade Unions from Greece that sign the following document we support your just struggle against the terrorizing “notices” and lay offs that are planned by the Mercedes-Benz so as to stop your struggle, which defends the right of workers to have full time jobs, with full rights, against the plans to use outsourcing and labour brokers in the factory of Mercedes Benz in Bremen.
The example of the multinational Mercedes Benz proves that there are no heavens for workers in capitalism. In the heart of the European Union the struggles of the workers are treated with oppression and terrorization. The workers in every country have to face the antilabour legislation of the EU that imposes outsourcing companies-today’s slave traders-, so as to attack against the gains and rights of the workers, their Collective Contracts. At the same time, in addition to the employers, the workers have to face also the bureaucratic trade union leaderships, who for all these years cultivate the ideology of “class collaboration” and “social dialogues”.
The Trade Union Organisations, Federations, Regional Trade Unions and Industrial Trade Unions that sign this document denounce the terrorizing tactics of the Mercedes Benz, against the just struggle of the workers in the Bremen Factory. We express our solidarity to the workers and promise you that we will support your struggle in any way possible, as you do in the struggles and mobilizations of the Greek working class, to the 9month heroic strike of the steelworkers.
