Hungary -Transport strike over pay -November 8, 2012

Transport workers are preparing a strike after trade unions active at Budapest Transport Centre (BKK) stated that they are unable to reach a collective labour agreement. A tentative contract signed earlier – which among others included cashiers, traffic managers and much-hated controllers – has expired but the parties have been unable to reach an agreement.
