International Railway Workers' Action Day
The ITF Railway Workers' International Action Day will be held on Tuesday 13 April 2010.
Railway workers' unions all over the world will take a variety of actions to appeal for the importance of railways under the slogan:
"Campaigning for the Global Future of Rail - Strong Unions, Sustainable Transport"
ITF unions can adopt additional sub-slogans nationally or regionally if necessary. Some unions in the past have in fact organised a variety of events that may not be confined to one day.
In Europe, the ETF and its railway unions will be holding an European Railway Workers' Action Day on 13 April 2010 to focus their strong dissatisfaction after almost 20 years of liberalisation, fragmentation and privatisation of the railways in Europe. It is enshrined in the global campaign being led by the ITF. The ETF Secretariat is in touch with our European affiliates for this event.
