Greece: Tourism Workers to Strike

After a series of strikes by various unions over the past several weeks, including riots in Athens that depressed tourist numbers, now the country’s major union representing tourism workers plans to strike for four hours June 16 and 24 hours June 30. Union members include hotel and restaurant workers so the likelihood of major disruption from these strikes alone is small. In other news, hospitals throughout the country are running short of supplies because the government owes suppliers 5.2 billion euros. Until a payment plan is in place, suppliers may provide only basic items to hospitals.
