OKYpY Workers to Strike Over Salary Discontent
October 26, 2026
Workers of the Health Services Organization (OKYpY) have decided to go on a 48-hour strike on November 10 and 11, 2026, due to dissatisfaction with the non-fulfillment of the Collective Agreement 2023-2025. The unions demand salary increases and efficient personnel management to address understaffing issues. Talks for the new 2026-2027 agreement have reached a deadlock, with unions seeking meaningful dialogue. The strike may disrupt public hospitals, but employees will collaborate to ensure services for emergency cases. They urge OKYpY to respond promptly to their proposals to prevent the strike.
