The 24-hour warning strike called for Wednesday 30 November by the Sectoral Council of Employees of the Technical Structure of the Ministry of Labour and Social Security has been suspended.
A representative of the employees of the department, which consists of 278 Technical Structure officials and 20 Scientific Structure officials, told the CPS that an agreement has been reached with the employers' side and therefore the strike measures are postponed. He said that the content of the agreement will be announced on Wednesday by PASYDY.
In a statement, they said that the employer's side has pledged to meet the demand of the Social Security Officers Branch and an announcement is expected from the PASYDY guild.
Earlier, in a statement, the guild said that the reasons that forced the officials of the Technical Structure to strike is the lack of information and participation of the branch council of the Service in the decision of the competent authority in 2021 to restructure the Department of Social Security Services.
The restructuring included the gradual elimination of vacancies at the base of the Technical Structure, 26 A2-5-7 posts in the year 2023, turning the Technical Structure into a declining one with the aim of abolishing it.
It also included the creation of 2 new posts in the Technical Structure at scale A11(ii) and 2 at A10(i) and no posts at A8-9 and the gradual increase of posts in the Scientific Structure with a view to expanding it, creating 2 new posts at scale A14(ii) and 10 new posts at scale A8-10-11 in the year 2023.
