The event organized Wednesday by Synergy Workers of Togo (STT) is illegal. A reminder made Tuesday by the Minister of Labour and Social Security, John Aglo Siabi.
'We want the repeated strikes cease to allow development of the discussions.The government has made salary increase efforts and these efforts will continue, he has said said.
STT present in the health and education sector, left the negotiating table there several weeks and now requires a head to head with the government without the other unions.
The authorities are prepared to respond positively - to the extent of their resources - some wage demands. But the conclusion of an agreement necessarily requires a broad dialogue, not strikes and diktats.
This tension on the labor front comes a few weeks before the presidential election. Which is probably not a coincidence.
