WE PARTICIPATE IN THE ELECTIONS OF THE WORKERS’ UNION OF WEBHELP 27 AND 29 MAY AND 1 JUNE
WE STRENGTHEN OUR UNION – WE STRENGTHEN OUR STRUGGLE
We invite you to become a member of the union and participate in its elections. So that many members new members can join from each department of Webhelp. Because the union is the place where colleagues meet, discuss, decide, show their solidarity for every problem in our lives and we all fight it together!
WE ARE ALL TOGETHER AGAINST THE FEAR THAT THE MANAGEMENT IS TRYING TO SOW!
Our magnificent strikes for our fair demands are what give birth to the Workers’ Union in Webhelp, our “home”!
With our great struggle since February, we said “enough is enough” with the stress of whether the month will come out, the intensification of work, the unreachable targets, the evaluation programme and blackmail, the layoffs, the special purpose visa regime and the employers’ attempt to sow fear. We refuse to continually pay the price so that Webhelp can satisfy customers and increase profits!
After six strikes and other mobilizations, this struggle continues! We demand here and now that the company drop the pretenses and talk about signing a Collective Labour Agreement with increases for all colleagues!
WE ARE ALREADY COUNTING OUR FIRST VICTORIES
Already with our Union we are counting steps and small victories without of course stopping until all our demands are met. Through the struggle of the Workers’ Union in Webhelp, together with the Workers’ Union in Teleperformance and the sectoral trade union SETIP, we managed to get a change in the special purpose visa regime so that the employment contract no longer needs to be presented for the examination of the documents for the renewal of residence permits.
Under pressure, the company promised and, in some cases, gave increases. However, these, like all the rights we have if they are not secured by Collective Agreement, are in abeyance. They can take them back or hire new colleagues with lower pay whenever they want.
We managed through our union to put a stop to the dismissal of colleagues through interventions, to not dismissing workers who are in the evaluation program and to reveal the way it is being used by the company, to give this small increase to the departments that are of obviously behind our needs.
Now we need to become even more. We participate in the election massively and we send a strong message to Webhelp that we are here!
In this struggle we were not alone! We fought together with our colleagues from Teleperformance and the other call centres, alongside our sectoral union, SETIP. We were there with our union during the national strikes! We put our efforts to strengthen this big front of unions all over Greece that fights against the policy that all governments have been implementing over time – a policy that serves the profitability of large companies like Webhelp, a policy that has brought inflation, work without Collective Agreement, without rights.
That’s how we will continue! Solidarity is our weapon!
WE DEMAND:
- Immediate signing of a Collective Labour Agreement with increases at Webhelp – no one under 900 euros gross!
- 20% increase in the monthly salary for all employees with immediate effect.
- Indefinite contracts for all workers – no to the 6-month contracts that have appeared in a well-known department.
- No to the modern slavery of special purpose visas.
- The company to stop using the improvement plan to intensify work and intimidate workers.
WE ALL GET ORGANIZED IN OUR UNION
