Larnaca bus strike

DRIVERS AT Larnaca’s bus company have announced a 24-hour strike on Thursday because they have not yet been paid last month’s salaries.
In a statement, members of the unions PEO, SEK, and DEOK said staff working for Zenonas were forced to take strike measures to claim their salaries.
“Once more they are caught in the middle of the disagreement between the communications ministry and the company,” the unions said.
The workers urged the company to pay their salaries immediately to avoid the strike and maintain normal service and not inconvenience passengers.
They also called on the ministry to do everything possible to resolve the issue.
The workers apologised to the public, adding that they were not to blame for the inconvenience.
