Transport strike on Monday
Commuters are to face fresh woes on Monday, October 10, when public transport workers are planning their next 24-hour strike.
The walkout was called on Friday by the unions representing the workers who are protesting fresh salary and pension cuts and the government?s plans to push thousands of employees into early retirement and put thousands more on a ?labor reserve scheme? that would see them receiving 60 percent of their salary for 12 months before possible dismissal.
The unions are planning a protest rally for Monday, to begin at noon at Kotzia Square and culminate in a march to the Finance Ministry on Syntagma Square.
