Slovenia - Public sector strike suspended - October 8, 2010

Public sector unions agreed to suspend their strike in response to a government commitment to abide by the current collective agreement. One of the main issues of dispute is the timetable for paying salary adjustments arising from changes in the public sector pay system. The adjustments were meant to be paid in four installments but the government wants to suspend payment of the third quarter until economic growth reaches 2.5% a year.
