  3. Serious Grounds demonstrations to continue around Finland – This is how JHL will demonstrate this week

Serious Grounds demonstrations to continue around Finland – This is how JHL will demonstrate this week

2.10.2023

During the first week of October, there will be a series of walkouts and demonstrations. JHL is organising walkouts from health centres and city workplaces, as well as events on marketplaces from Uusimaa all the way to Vaasa.

In addition, Trade Union JHL and other SAK-affiliated unions will remind that the Government’s unfair plans weaken employee rights and cripple the funding of public services.

In the Jyväskylä region, JHL members will walk out of three health centres and one hospital on Wednesday 4 October. Representatives of various occupations will take part in the demonstrations depending on location. The walkouts will last a maximum of fifteen minutes.

JHL is also organising a number of short work stoppages in Uusimaa. JHL members who work for the cities of Espoo, Vantaa or Kauniainen, Vantti Ltd or the Vantaa and Kerava wellbeing services county will take part in the work stoppages. The demonstrations will last ten minutes. Public servants are not involved in the work stoppages.

Furthermore, JHL is organising events on marketplaces. The union also shares information about Government policy in various cities. To check out all the events, visit our Serious Grounds page.

If you’re not yet a JHL member, join now. The more of us there are, the better we can fight the Government.
