Trade unionists Rached Kamel and Mustapha Massri, who work for ‘Suez Station For Public Transport’, were arrested following a protest organized by the workers. Trade union sources explained that the workers decided to take to the streets to protest against the social and material problems they are experiencing, recalling that they have not received any wage increase in five years and their bonuses have been frozen since 2014.
The same sources indicated that the workers also denounced the blatant interference of the security services in the trade union elections. Activists and trade unionists from Suez called for the release of all those arrested, to move the safe parties away from the trade union movement, pay the bonuses and no longer require unions and workers to support the system.
