As the situation from the imposed anti workers’ policies of SYRIZA Government, EU, big Business Groups, worsens day-by-day, a series of sectors organize their resistance, their counterattack for the protection of the workers and their rights, for Collective Contracts.

On July 13 the metalworkers in shipbuilding are going on strike demanding the signing of Collective Contract, as is was in 2009, which means reinstatement of wages and a series of workers’ rights, as work day time, health and safety regulations etc.

On July 16 the workers in Commerce-Retail are going on Strike against the demand of the big shop owners to liberalize work week and allow opening of shops also on Sunday, which was till today a day-off. This demand of the employers was accepted and legislated by the SYRIZA Government and on July 16 is the first Sunday that the shops are to open. Commerce workers Unions have warned that such a development will lead to deregulation of working week for all sectors and demand the cancelation of the Government’s decision.

On July 20 workers on Hotel-Tourism-Catering are going on Strike against the worsening of the working conditions and demand the reinstatement of Collective Contracts for the whole sector, especially the big, 5star hotels, owned by big multinational corporations.

The forces of PAME from all sectors support the preparation of the strikes, actively inform and participate in the initiatives for the success of these actions, which can become an important base for the counterattack of the workers of all sectors.

We call all unions to express their solidarity and support these important strike actions
