The economy can withstand both the ATA and wage restoration, the Independent Guild of Public Employees of Cyprus says in a statement.
According to the Guild's statement, Russia's invasion of Ukraine acted for the Cypriot employers and some political parties as "an accelerator for the promotion of their well known permanent aspirations, which are distinguished by their anti-worker content".
The war was, says ASDYK, a "favourable" moment for the employers' organisations, OEB and KEBE, who were quick to reintroduce the issue of abolishing the ATA and reducing wages in the public sector, perhaps also in the private sector, as measures to support the economy and entrepreneurship.
