SARAJEVO, May 8 (FENA) - A warning strike of the employees in the education sector in primary and secondary school in the Sarajevo Canton is under way in Sarajevo as the teachers want underline the numerous problems they face in their everyday work.

President of this trade union Saudin Sivro, explained in a statement to FENA that they want their dignity to be restored by abolishing excess bureaucratization, implementing the curricular reform, completely ending the austerity measures, new pedagogical standards and norms, abolishment of fines for small bureaucratic errors and fully respect for the collective agreements.

He emphasized that he would not give up on their requests as they consider them to be justified and stressed that they wanted to have more time to work with children rather than dealing with bureaucracy.

He emphasized that employees in the education sector are very dissatisfied and that they are not able to do their job.

"It's a shameful that the government even allowed for such a situation to happen in schools and that we would come to a point to have to hold protests,” said Sivro.

The Trade Union of Primary and Secondary Education in the Sarajevo Canton last night unanimously decided to hold the protests in which hundreds of teachers and educators gathered today in the streets of Sarajevo.

The protest rally started in front of the Eternal Flame Memorial, and then the participants marched through Marshal Tito Street. They paid tribute to the murdered children of Sarajevo in the past war, and then the strike continued in front of the Sarajevo Canton government and is planned to end at 14.00 hrs.
