Safran employees have still mobilized
A message heard in particular at the Safran factory in Domérat, where a new strike is expected next Thursday. “The management only offers us a Macron bonus of € 750 and the equivalent of € 1,000 in action. These are crumbs as the company enjoyed a cash flow of 2.5 billion euros in the third quarter. For our part, we are asking for a 4% salary increase, ”said an employee of the demonstration.
The procession stopped in front of the Orange shop on Boulevard de Courtais. Employees denounced the “dismantling of the network of shops” of the telecommunications company.
