Alexis Tsipras underlined the wave of accuracy and the frightening attack on labor rights with the tolerance and encouragement of the Mitsotakis government, underlined a social explosion in the meeting he had with the representatives of 4 large federations of workers in industry.
The president of SYRIZA – Progressive Alliance clearly stated his support for their mobilizations because, as he said, “we realize that after 8 years of crisis, 2 years of pandemic we are in a period that is extremely difficult for Greek society, but mainly for workers.”
According to him, industry should be a key pillar of the productive reconstruction of the country. “Unfortunately it is not, but the most important thing is that in recent years we have seen a real attack on labor rights.”
“We see a horrific attack with the tolerance and encouragement of the Mitsotakis government on labor rights, unpaid overtime, collective redundancies. We see a condition which in our view foretells a social explosion, a social crisis,” said Alexis Tsipras.
In addition, as he mentioned, the phenomenon of contracting is prevalent at a time when wages remain at a pre-crisis level while commodity and energy prices have been rising rapidly lately.
He called on the workers through a common dialogue “to find solutions to put a brake on the overall attack on the world of work and to create the conditions for a substantial productive reconstruction through the strengthening of industry, the preservation of jobs, the protection of of labor rights ”.
For their part, the representatives of the 4 federations stressed with particular emphasis that all their problems stem from the anti-labor law of Hatzidakis. Their main and main issue is the dismissals that started from the Fertilizers, then in the oils of Kavala and now comes LARCO.
As they pointed out, there is a huge problem with the contractors that are directly related to the redundancies. “They fire to deactivate,” said Panagiotis Kontosiadis, president of the Panhellenic Energy Federation.
The meeting of Alexis Tsipras that took place at the offices of SYRIZA in the Parliament was attended by the representatives of the Panhellenic Energy Federation (WTO), the Panhellenic Federation of Metal Workers (POEM), the Federation of Chemical Workers of Greece (VOE).
