The “Democratic Confederation of Labor” union called for organizing regional marches in different cities in the regions tomorrow, Sunday January 5, to protest against the strike bill approved by the House of Representatives on December 24, 2024.
Al-Naqaya confirmed that the law, in its current form, still restricts the right to strike and contradicts the Constitution and international conventions.
The union explained in its press release that the government relied on its parliamentary majority to adopt the law, despite its promise to agree with the different parties.
She stressed that the amendments made to the project have not changed its essence of rejection and that it still constitutes a threat to trade union freedoms.
The Confederation also renewed its categorical rejection of the law and considers it a continuation of the restrictive approach to labor rights. He called on his activists from regional and local branches and national unions to participate intensively in the marches, stressing the need to prepare to fight other battles of struggle, including a national march and a general strike if necessary.
