Towards a “dark week” in SNCF trains? Several categories of railway workers, including drivers and controllers, have presented a strike notice for the period from May 6 to 10, at the time of large departures in the stations for the bridge from 8 to May.
“What is needed is to listen to the demands of rail workers and rail workers, and open negotiations so that the demands are satisfied and that employees do not need to attack,” CGT general, Sophie Binet, in Franceinfo, reacted on Thursday. “The strike is never a pleasure. When you smell, you lose a salary day,” he said, ensuring that rail workers were “very attached to their work” and “in the public service.”
No “privileged”
Beyond salaries, “there is an issue that everyone refuses to talk about is the question of work at night, the weekend, the schedules, work in unconventional times,” he said. “This is one of the very important demands that must be satisfied, because rail workers and rail workers also have the right to have a family life, leisure and schedules that are predictable,” he added.
The general secretary of the CGT considers that there is still time to avoid the strike. “There is still a week” to open a negotiation calendar that opens perspectives and that allows their demands to be heard, “said Sophie Binet, for whom” the ball is in the management field. “
