The Communist Party of Greece (KKE) reports that a mass rally of trade unionists and workers from the private and public sector was held in front of the Greek parliament in Syntagma Square, on Wednesday, December 4. They were there in "response to the bill with which the government adds another "mechanism" to the legislative framework, that cuts and freezes salaries, undermines Collective Labour Agreements and aligns labour rights with the needs of the monopolies' profitability. The outrageous bill of the New Democracy government provides for the abolition of collective bargaining and the determination of the minimum wage according to an algorithm based on the “competitiveness” of businesses."
"We respond in a militant way to the new anti-labour monstrosity on the minimum wage. The government and the Ministry of Labour must meet the demands of the trade unions immediately. Collective Agreements must be reinstated and the anti-labour laws must be abolished." the demonstrators demanded.
More than 630 trade unions have united their voices by drawing up an alternative proposal, which the KKE supports, to the anti-worker bill.
