Trade unionists reported that the roster with different routes and working hours was announced unilaterally by management. GWU warned MPT that it would order its members not to work the new hours until talks had been concluded. The union said that the roster did not allow enough time for breaks, as the roster did not take into account the time it takes to unload and load passengers. During a day of strike GWU and Malta Public Transport reached an agreement through which bus drivers will be given 15-minute breaks, one of the main issues that prompted the union to order the bus strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>English: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.maltatoday.com.mt\u002Fnews\u002Fnational\u002F57491\u002Fbus_strike_all_day_tomorrow#.Vgaej322pup\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.maltatoday.com.mt\u002Fnews\u002Fnational\u002F57491\u002Fbus_strike_all_day … \u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.maltatoday.com.mt\u002Fnews\u002Fnational\u002F57065\u002Fnew_bus_routes_postponed_as_union_talks_continue#.VfiGkek5n0A\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.maltatoday.com.mt\u002Fnews\u002Fnational\u002F57065\u002Fnew_bus_routes_postponed … \u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies (AIAS) \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:cbn-aias@uva.nl\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">cbn-aias@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\"> or the communications officer at the ETUI, Mariya Nikolova \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:mnikolova@etui.org\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">mnikolova@etui.org\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">.
