Court workers protest over pay

Poland

Members of the Solidarity trade union working in the courts and prosecutors' offices organised a protest on 13 November over pay. Rather than the image of high-paid judges and prosecutors, the union says that 80% of workers get less than 2000 ZLT (EUR 475) a month and their pay claim is for a modest 100 ZLT a month  (EUR 25). The protestors handed in a petition to the prime minister also calling for an increase in jobs in the sector.
