Employees at Zagreb International Airport have announced strike actions against a worsening of their working conditions. The airport is in the process of being taken over by a French led consortium, which trade unions have said are refusing to uphold the terms of the current collective agreement. After reconciliation failed, the unions have announced three strikes. The first strike, on 21 November, will last from 10:00 to midnight; the second strike, starting on 25 November will last three days. If no solution has been reached until then, the airport employees will go on indefinite strike from 1 December onwards.
