ETUC expresses support for TURK-SEN public sector workers fighting privatisation
The European Trade Union Confederation today expressed full support for its affiliate TURK-SEN and its members in the telecommunications and electricity industries who have called an indefinite strike, starting on 19 January, against privatisations in the North of Cyprus.
ETUC General Secretary Bernadette Ségol said: “We condemn this action inspired by the authorities in Ankara. Once more working people and their families are carrying the burden of austerity measures and privatisations in the electricity and communications sectors. We extend our solidarity to our colleagues in TURK-SEN and their members in EL-SEN and TEL-SEN”.
