Solidarity with the Stockholm Suburban Railway Workers Vild strejk på pendeln

Published on

PAME from Greece expresses its solidarity with the workers of the Stockholm Suburban Railway in Sweden, who are on a strike for several days to protect the rights and safety of the workers and the people who use the suburban trains.

On Monday 17 April, workers on the Stockholm suburban railway went on wildcat strike against the employer-local authority’s plans to cut staff from the suburban railway and to replace workers with training and experience with untrained workers on flexible working conditions.

The Swedish authorities have responded with intimidations, threats and punitive fines to the workers’ struggle for work with rights and safety in transport for workers and the people. At the same time, the anti-worker attack is being supported by the compromised leaderships of the Swedish trade union organisations, who are defending ‘industrial peace’ at a time when workers’ rights are being smashed.

Colleagues in Stockholm Suburban Railways, in Greece we are well aware of the consequences of privatisations and the imposition of flexible working conditions, as we have recently suffered dozens of victims on trains because of the policies that count safety as a cost. That is why your struggle is also our struggle, because our lives cannot be weighed in the logic of profit and cost.

Against the attack of the Employers-EU-Governments, workers have the power of collective, organized action, of solidarity and support of the working class.

PAME supports the just struggle and the strike of the Stockholm Suburban Railway workers.
