If the obligations from the agreement are not fulfilled by December 1, or if there is any retaliation against those who have participated in the strike so far, they will once again stop work and take to the streets
A group of about 50 workers of the Post Office in Novi Sad who were on strike decided, after a thorough consideration of the situation, to end the suspension and resume work from Thursday, November 23, the United Trade Unions of Serbia "Sloga" announced today.
The decision to end the strike is conditioned by strict verification of the fulfillment of the points of the agreement signed between the Government and the representative unions, which were not the organizers of the suspension. The workers emphasized that if the obligations from the agreement are not fulfilled by December 1 or if there is any retaliation against those who have participated in the strike so far, they will stop work again and take to the streets.
The suspension of work by disgruntled employees of JP Pošta Srbije began on October 24 with demands for an increase in the number of employees, an increase in wages by at least 30 percent, an end to discrimination against employees, and official guarantees from the Government of Serbia for the fulfillment of these demands.
On November 15, the Government of Serbia signed an agreement with the representative unions, agreeing to pay one-time aid to all workers, except management, until November 25, and promising a 10 percent salary increase from November 1 this year, with an additional increase from January 1, 2024. It was also agreed to increase salaries for employees in the administration, except for management, by 10 percent, starting on January 1, 2024.
The workers of JP Pošta Srbije expressed their expectation of responsible implementation of the agreement and warned of serious consequences if the deadlines and obligations are not fulfilled as agreed.
Stefan Mitrović, one of the postmen, told N1 that there are indications, that is, that they heard that one colleague, whose contract for a certain period of time is expiring, will not be extended, because he participated in the suspension of work. Mitrović reported that the first request for a 30 percent salary increase was not fulfilled, and he also said that the postmen will closely monitor whether the points of the agreement are respected.
