Hundreds of unionists, members of the National Trade Union Bloc (BNS), on Tuesday protest in front of the Government building, against the decision to transfer social contributions from employer to employee.
They also carry banners reading: "Liviu Dragnea, you thief, leaving us without a piece," "We were working and you disturbed us," "I can't go to bed, with the country in your hand," "In democracy thieves stay in jail," "PSD - the red plague," "At night, you've stolen our dignity."
Moreover, the protesters sang Romania's anthem and kept a moment of silence for King Mihai I who died recently.
According to a BNS press release sent to AGERPRES, the National Trade Union Bloc protests to draw the attention of the Government with respect to the negative effects, on short, medium and long term, to be generated by the transfer of social contributions from the employer to employee.
"By transferring all social risks to the employee and destroying thus the system of collective negotiations they condemn workforce in Romania to precariousness in labour relations. The fundamental rights of workers are threatened, as chances to fair labour, based on trust and mutual respect, continue to degrade," said the release.
