Balgarianovinite.com My message on the occasion of May 1 is for fair pay, job security, and prospects for workers in both the economy and the public sector, said Dimiter Manolov, President of the Podkrepa Labour Confederation, speaking to journalists while leading a procession on International Workers’ Day.
Among the challenges facing workers, Manolov pointed to political instability and the turbulence related to the introduction of the euro. All of this affects the standard of living in Bulgaria, because wages are lagging behind prices and this must be corrected, the union leader said.
Podkrepa has over 50 proposals related to strengthening the system of collective bargaining, including its introduction in the public administration, where such a mechanism does not currently exist, as well as easing the rules for organizing strikes, which he described as the workers’ most reliable tool, said Manolov.
The procession, which was also joined by BSP leader Krum Zarkov, started from the St. Nedelya church and moved past the National Palace of Culture (NDK) toward the park next to the Earth and Man National Museum. The procession was held under the slogan: “Security, jobs, wages!
