Post Office strikers tell state TV they’re going back to work

The RTS said that all of the strikers would go back to work, ending their protest which started on October 24. Spokespeople for the strikers said that a large part of them were already back at work and added that they expect their remaining demands to be met by the end of the month or they will resume the strike.

They said they were not happy with the pay rise of about 20 percent but were satisfied that an agreement had been reached on other demands.

“We will fight. This can be said to be a ceasefire…. The management and the government should know that they can’t play with Post Office staff, that we are carefully monitoring what they signed in the agreemnt and if they don’t meet that by December 1, we will stop work, make this more massive and consider other steps,” strike spokesman Stefan Mitrovic told the RTS.
