Greekreporter.com says: “Early in the morning, the contract workers who occupy posts in administrative companies, technicians as well as journalists of the national television and radio have taken by storm the entrance gates of the radio mansion.
“The contract workers do not allow the permanent employees [to] enter the building, on which they have set up a ban[ner] saying: ”No captivity, permanent occupation now!” Erewhile there was a conflict between an employee who tried to enter the mansion and the contract workers, who vituperated him. As he declared, he is going to prosecute in court those who attacked him.
“It concerns employees (about 1,047) in ERT for many years, with contracts concerning specific time, who lose their jobs as their contracts are terminated today. They apologise to the audience for the discomfort they caused, but they note that they choosed to close down the mansion instead of a road. The situation as well as the dialogue among the contract workers and the administration have come to a dead end.”
