A call for mass participation in the May Day strike rally that will take place on Wednesday, May 1, is addressed by the Komotini Labor Center.
In his message for May Day he states:
“May Day, also known as Labor Day or International Workers’ Day, is of great importance to workers because it is a day to recognize the rights of the working class and efforts to improve working conditions worldwide.
May Day 2024 finds the workers of the country for another year facing an unprecedented living crisis. Punctuality, social poverty, restriction of labor rights, precariousness and insecurity in workplaces are the dominant consequences of the applied policies.
The 1the May, in addition to being a day of remembrance and honor for the pioneer fighters of the working class, is also a day of struggle and strike of the workers.
May Day commemorates and honors the successes and sacrifices of workers in history, such as reducing working hours, improving working conditions and establishing the eight-hour shift. It highlights the right to work and fair working conditions, which is fundamental to social justice and economic security. It symbolizes solidarity among workers around the world and reinforces the concept of shared concern and shared goals for better conditions for all. It provides an opportunity for employees to highlight current issues and challenges in the workplace, such as inequality, unemployment and adverse working conditions.
That is why we fight for a better present and future for us and our children. Without accuracy, social poverty, job insecurity and inequalities.
On this historic day, we unite our voices and together we give a competitive, strike-like presence to the call of the unions on Wednesday 1the May.
The Labor Center of Komotini calls for mass participation in the May Day strike rally that will take place on Wednesday 1the May.
In Komotini, the Gathering of the Labor Center of Komotini with laying of wreaths will take place at 11:00 am. to the National Resistance Statue in front of the former Prefecture”.
