wages

The workplaces of the Public Employment Service (DYPA – previously OAED) have been visited by the president of SYRIZA-PS, Stefanos Kasselakis, the place he had a gathering and dialogue with the workers of the service.

Addressing staff, he stated: “A message ought to be despatched on this election. I’ve publicly dedicated to the reinstatement of the thirteenth and 14th wage to civil servants, all through the State. And I inform you clearly, that if the Greek folks honor us, when the following parliamentary elections are to be held, with their vote, it is going to be one thing that I’ll do from the primary day of governing. Why; As a result of fairly merely your actual wage has gone down quite a bit over the past ten or so years.

I do know you’ll be able to’t survive so precisely, with so little earnings and taxation. We all know it: the invoice would not come out. That a lot is obvious. And there’s at this second in our society a component, a 20%, which actually lives higher. And there’s one other half, which is both stagnant and slowly being gnawed away and their financial savings are lowered, or they’re actually ravenous.

And this isn’t a developed, trendy nation, in my view. Particularly when mixed with privatization in Well being and disinvestment in public Training. So, there have to be a very completely different mannequin of governance.”

Persevering with, he stated that Greece deviates from Europe: “We have been the primary poor nation to affix. Now we have acquired a lot funding, a lot help and monetary help. Why will we stay second from the underside in buying energy and second from the highest in oblique taxes? The worst in Europe for younger kids, 18-35 years previous, who nonetheless dwell within the kids’s room. Why do we’ve probably the most debt in Europe? Have there been no concepts and ideas? There have been so many. The reply is: lack of political management and management and integrity.”

The reply to “the place will he discover the cash”

He answered the objections about “the place he’ll discover the cash” for the implementation of his commitments: “When you’re instructed, the place will you discover the cash, this query, my expensive fellow residents, is when a rustic should construct its Fund from the zero to 37 billion. Then you definitely ask this query. When you’re at 37 billion for a very long time, you will have development, you’re speculated to, you will have excessive taxes, you will have help from Europe within the midst of covid, you already know what the query is: The place does the cash go? That is the query.”

Mr. Kasselakis underlined: “We’re in your facet. You realize very properly that we don’t agree with a productiveness bonus, which turns into terrorism in your every day life. It turns into a lever of a celebration state, a booty state. As a substitute of all of us having the ability to have, I consider, a transparent transparency, to present higher providers to the Greek citizen, however for a public worker to be paid correctly and to have the ability to have private satisfaction from his work. We can’t have two-speed staff on this nation, after so a few years of deconstruction of the State from the memoranda”.

Generalizing, he stated: “When a rustic has big social issues and inequalities, you do not depend on personal initiative by the cartels to resolve them. It is as if the Justice works effectively for the baby, for the one who would not have the flexibility to endure for years within the courts. It is as if the banking system is working correctly, to offer liquidity, when 9 out of 10 small and medium-sized companies cannot get by the financial institution’s door.

So how will there be a diffusion of financial exercise, when de facto, structurally, there are levees for the highly effective, those that have a superb place to begin? This have to be structurally modified. Taxation, cuts to Justice, transparency measures, to be precise.”

“We should change the conceitedness of the 41%”

Relating to the motion of SYRIZA, he stated: “We’ll do every little thing we will in parliament. Sadly, they both ignore us after we ask questions, or reject the regulation proposals we make. That is the conceitedness of the 41%. And we’ve to alter that. To not merely have a robust opposition in these European elections.

Now we have to alter them, in order that these extra socially conscious proposals also can change into a message from society to the federal government: a change in political path. In any other case, we are going to actually obtain scorched earth in the long run. A society that can have bent and a system that can have benefited the few and chosen. And this isn’t a contemporary society. It isn’t a society we deserve.”

In closing, he assured: “Step one, then, is in two and a half weeks from now.”
