On 5 August, workers at two factories of auto parts manufacturer Standard Profil in Duzce and Manisa went on wildcat strikes and occupied their workplaces, demanding an additional raise and safe working conditions. Over 2,000 workers joined the walkouts, which ended on 9 August after the company accepted workers’ demands. Accordingly, management will give workers a further 28% wage increase, a TL 1,500 (€83) shopping voucher, and take occupational health and safety measures. The wildcat strikes at Standard Profil took place amid growing anger against the steadily rising cost of living and falling real wages. Official annual inflation in Turkey rose to 79.6% as of July.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Read on:\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.wsws.org\u002Fen\u002Farticles\u002F2022\u002F08\u002F14\u002F3beb-a14.html\"> in English. \u003C\u002Fa>Read on:\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpremudraja.net\u002Fa-new-wave-of-strikes-breaks-out-in-turkey-as-inflation-rises\u002F\"> in English (2).\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For more information, please contact Paul de Beer or Oana Ciuca, De Burcht (Scientific Bureau for the Dutch Trade Union Movement) \u003Ca href=\"mailto:p.t.debeer@uva.nl\">p.t.debeer@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fa> or the Head of communications at the ETUI, Mehmet Koksal \u003Ca href=\"mailto:mkoksal@etui.org\">mkoksal@etui.org\u003C\u002Fa>.
