This communique stresses that the protest decision was taken last night by a meeting held with municipal union and university chiefs.
It also begs the government to reflect, on the contrary, the SBASK says it will move towards even more radical actions.
Their full announcement:
Based on the decision of union federations within the BSPK, an extraordinary meeting of the SBASK with municipal and university heads has been held in the hours of Wednesday's evening. After a constructive debate, it has been reconfirmed that in the protest called on May 20th by the BSPK based on the voice of membership, employees in the education sector will also participate in mass participation. Based on this, participants in the SBASK emergency meeting have made a decision that on Friday schools do not work because educational workers will eventually leave their settlements to join the protest.
The SBASK expresses regret over the created situation, which is the consequence of the Government's lack of readiness for dialogue and commitment to resolving the legitimate demands of workers in education, from the clinics to Universite and culture, but also in the other sectors. Representatives of parents' councils are invited to be part of our protest in order to strengthen the joint voice to the Government to dialogue with trade unions and commit to choosing their legitimate demands. We also appeal to parents who, for the sake of their children's safety tomorrow, do not start out for school because schools are without educational personnel, who without their fault are forced to protest the effort to meet their demands. In this protest there will also be SBASK membership from all universities in Kosovo, and from our membership in the nursery we seek understanding so that work there will not stop tomorrow, but representatives from these institutions will participate in protest without violating the flow of the work process at the nursery.
Let us pray together for the Government to reflect and have no reason to go towards even more radical actions.
