Decidedly, this spring 2022 is complicated in the public transport of the Grenoble metropolis. Less than two weeks after the attack on a driver in Grenoble and a massive right of withdrawal from the agents, the latter are called to strike from this Monday, May 2. A call for an unlimited strike, which should, unless surprised, have a limited impact on traffic on Monday, as it concerns technical services. But that could quickly change…
This time, it is the technical agents, in charge in particular of maintenance who are called to strike, at the call of FO, Unsa, Solidaires and the CFE-CGC. At issue: the working conditions, deemed unattractive by the unions, which have been alerting management for several months to the numerous resignations.
100% of technical services on strike
“100% of workers and supervisors in the technical sector will be on strike“, announces Fernando Martins, FO secretary at M’Tag. This represents approximately 180 agents.”Traffic will undoubtedly be disrupted from this Monday and perhaps even stopped in a few days“, believes the union official. Because in the event of a breakdown or parts to be changed, there will be no one to provide maintenance, which could block traffic.
