We disagree on the extent of the measures to be taken but in full agreement on the various types of violence that our agents suffer too regularly on the network. We reiterated that we do not recognize. this right of withdrawal therefore agents who wish to exercise it will not be covered or remunerated. It's a subject of tension.
