Public sector strike next Wednesday suspended after discussions between Government and unions

An upcoming public sector strike scheduled for next Wednesday has been suspended following discussions between the government and labor unions. The suspension averts immediate industrial action and follows a recent large-scale mobilization involving over 300,000 public sector workers, which marked the largest strike in the country in 17 years.

The breakthrough comes in the wake of significant workforce disruption led by hundreds of thousands of employees. Both the government and union representatives have engaged in talks to address the grievances that prompted the unprecedented mobilization, leading to the current pause in planned strikes.
