The expansion of the strike movement continues.
Strict measures of the authorities encourage workers of enterprises to go on strike, chairman of the Belarusian Independent Trade Union (BITU)
Maksim Pazniakou said, naviny.by reports.
According to him, there are about 130 people on strike at Belaruskali and other Salihorsk enterprises, 20 at Naftan, 1 at the Polatsk Glass Fiber, 11 at BMZ, 30 at Hrodna Azot. Several people are on strike at the Belarusian Railways and several other enterprises, Maksim Pazniakou notes.
"Last week, Naftan employees became more active. In our opinion, this is caused by the dismissal of an active member of the independent trade union, Volha Brytsikava. During the week, 7 people joined the strike. This is the reaction of the team to her dismissal," - the trade union leader believes.
