The 48-hour repeated strikes of the Piraeus Port Organisation (OLP) and the Thessaloniki Port Organisation (OLTH) employees are expected to cause problems to the transport of containers and the luggage handling in the cruise terminals of the two big ports of the country.
The labour unions of OLP and OLTH have announced repeated strikes as of Thursday, May 26 to protest against the privatisation of the ports.
“The government goes ahead with the sale of the share capital of OLP and OLTH despite the employees’ disagreements. At the same time, despite the repeated meetings, there has been no response from the government to the workers’ demand for protection of their labour relations,” port labour unions said in a joint statement.
