Portugal - Supermarket workers on strike - August 31, 2017

The trade union for supermarket workers at the Dia/Minipreço supermarkets has called for a strike. The union said the workers’ action is planned to support accusations by workers of ‘salary discrimination and moral harassment’ within the company. The unions speak about constant threats of dismissal, attempts to prevent the reconciliation of family life with work, limitation of the right to strike, abuse of authority and threats of change time schedules and site transfers.
