New strike by municipal employees, including sanitation

Municipal employees held a protest in central Athens on Friday morning as part of another 24-hour strike called by their union, POE-OTA.

The action comes despite the fact that sanitation workers, who are part of POE-OTA, have been issued with civil mobilization orders. The workers have been on strike since last week.

So far, less than 2,000 of the 8,000 sanitation workers have received their mobilization papers.
