The OGBL (Independent Luxembourg Trade Union Confederation) wished to draw attention to what it deemed an unacceptable situation, caused by the printing group's decision to hire a new cleaning firm.
The new firm refused to take on the former cleaners, thus violating a collective agreement which guaranteed former employees would be offered new employment during the takeover.
The former employees have now been left in difficult circumstances, said the OGBL. The union has planned to enter talks with the cleaning federation and will involve the Inspectorate of Labour and Mines if required.
