This is the very first miners protest the government’s information today about the possibility of closing the mines. On the surface miners left no other changes in the coal mine “Brzeszcze”.
The protesters decided to be about 600 meters below ground. The event was organized spontaneously, without the participation of trade unions.
According to the union protests at the bottom of approx. 100 miners. Coal Company spokesman Thomas Głogowski reported that less than 40. These are the people who had to leave the surface of the chair. 19. The third change, according to the information director of the mine, works – Głogowski added.
Głogowski reported that in addition to the on-site director of the mine are also members of the guard. The priority now is to ensure the safety of workers, as well as those who are protesting – he said.
On Thursday, staff will meet Protest-strike
On Thursday morning in Katowice staff will meet mining Protest-strike. This is a reaction to the government sector repair program, which involves the elimination of four unprofitable mines and redundancies. Miners have posted in this case a letter to Prime Minister Ewa Kopacz. How to say no one officially presented them any design changes.
Everything can offer, but everything has to be the hands and feet. You can talk about the excesses in some specific groups of employees, wondering what to do with those veined, but if someone says in advance, breaking down the mines, mines close, breaking down jobs, well, what we talk about? – says the head of mining the “Solidarity” Jaroslaw Grzesik. I hope that in a short period of time, this program will be announced, will be able to relate to it. But do not rule out any form of protest, we do not have anything left. We protest against such treatment of us by the government – adds .
What’s in the plan of government?
Recall that the government’s plan assumes that the Coal Company mines will be divided into three groups. The first is the mines that are unprofitable – “Bobrek-Centrum”, “Sośnica-Makoszowy”, “Brzeszcze” and “Peace”. They will be transferred to the newly established Restructuring Coal Company and later extinguished. Will also be liquidated assets unrelated to mining. Other mines will go instead to buying it and survive.
6000 employees wygaszanych mines will be transferred to other plants. The remaining 2 100 people will lose their jobs, unfortunately. The miners, who for retirement were less than four years, will get the opportunity to take advantage of up to 4-year leave for 75 percent of salary. Younger can count on severance pay of 2-year salary. Another thousand employees coal processing gets 10-month severance pay, and one and a half thousand people from the administration of terrestrial gets nearly 4-month check.
