Today POSPERT (Panhellenic Federation of Greek Broadcasting Unions), submitted a memorandum to the Council of the State, about the non-implementation of the decision that the government has been blatantly ignoring for 17 days now, so that the ERT transmitters open and a full radio-television programme can be provided. The employees also met with the Secretary General of KKE (Greek Communist Party), Dimitris Koutsoumbas, who expressed once again his solidarity with the ERT employees and the firm position that the Legislative Act, which led to the closing of ERT and massive lay-offs of the employees and which, for as long as it is active, paves the road for lay-offs in the whole broader public sector, must be abolished here and now. Already, the Greek Defense Systems are next, as well as other public sector entities, as the Secretary General of KKE stated. Mr. Koutsoubas noted that KKE disagrees with the government proposals about the transitional scheme, because “it will become the means for new lay-offs, for the violation of the employees’ rights and for an unfavourable change of a series of employment relationships and conquests, that the employees in the state radio-television sector have”. He also underlined that “the state television must open here and now, securing the rights of all employees, with no lay-offs”.
