Side TECwe are informed “that there are disruptions to be expected. But it is very difficult to anticipate the exact consequences.“In question, it is a strike and not a demonstration.”For events, we have the list two days in advance of those who are participating. Here, those who want to participate in the strike do not have to declare anything. They can even decide it the same day.“So pay attention to TEC announcements, both on the site and on the application, if you have to travel on the network this Monday.
Some schools could also be affected by the strikes on Monday January 13. Several Flemish unions have announced that they are joining the movement. On the French-speaking side, the embarrassments should be limited. But some establishments have asked parents to plan a picnic for the students, because the hot meals will not be served. Childcare could also be disrupted.
“Our responsibility”
These moves are linked to pension measures that are on the negotiating table of the Arizona coalition. “It is our responsibility to defend workers’ rights and guarantee a dignified pension system for all“, explains Pierre Lejeune, National President of the CGSP Cheminots. This is why actions will be planned in front of the pension tower in Brussels this Monday, January 13.
Criticized by Infrabel because of the consequences of such a strike, the unions reacted: “It is the absence of concrete solutions to workers’ concerns that gives rise to these social movements, and not a simple desire to harm the economy.“. For Pierre Lejeune, “the stakes go far beyond a simple day of disruption“.
Mobilization on January 27 and 28
End of January, repeat. This time it is the plan to end the appointment of teachers which leads to the strikes. Which will therefore affect the education sector. Opposed to the Walloon government’s MR-Les Engagés project, the union common front called on teachers to strike on Monday January 27 and Tuesday January 28.
Actions are planned during these two days of mobilization of the teaching world. A demonstration will take place in Brussels on Monday 27. As for Tuesday 28, decentralized actions according to union plans are to be expected.
