Fed up with oppression. This is how one could briefly describe yesterday‘s protest, which commemorated the two people from the queer community who were murdered on 12th October in Bratislava, as well as the systemic context of oppression. Powerful speeches and the overall energy of the protest, full of anger, rage, grief and humour, created an atmosphere that we have never seen before in Slovakia.
Cases where people contact us about unpaid wages end in different ways. Sometimes they become an open dispute (mostly successful), sometimes the issue is resolved before open dispute, and sometimes the issue is not resolved at all or communication from the workers does not continue. The following article covers almost all the mentioned scenarios that we encountered since last year's International Week Against Unpaid Wages in various cities across Slovakia It is worth noting that most them were related to hospitality and almost all cases affected women.
The International Week of Actions against Unpaid Wages started off with an action by ZSP at a Zabka convenience store. The situation concerns one worker who was cheated in two ways: by being denied the correct payment for work on Sundays and holidays and by having illegal deductions made from her salary. The sum amount of the wage theft amounted to 5688 zloties or 1170 euros. We went with a letter to demand that this money be paid.

Ante la velocidad con que avanzan los acontecimientos de la guerra en Ucrania y lo fragmentario, confuso y sesgado de las informaciones que nos llegan por los diferentes medios informativos, el grupo Moiras decidió enviar esta semana unas preguntas a la sección rusa de la AIT, con el fin de obtener una perspectiva libertaria acerca del conflicto que nos ayude a posicionarnos y a tomar decisiones en base a un conocimiento ampliado.
(Nota: traducción automática) El año 2021 se dedicó principalmente a desarrollar contactos en las regiones, actividades de solidaridad y participación en actos públicos. También ganamos otro conflicto y apoyamos a varios trabajadores con sus problemas laborales. Participamos en acciones contra la crisis climática, coordinamos la Semana internacional contra el impago de salarios y acogimos el Plenario y Congreso Extraordinario de la AIT.
