Delays on Athens metro as workers protest wage cuts

The Athens metro was experiencing delays on Monday due to a protest by workers at the main depot in Sepolia.

The employees are protesting against plans to reduce their wages in line with an across-the-board pay scale for civil servants.

The metro workers also staged a strike on New Year’s Day to show their opposition to the government’s plans.

Monday’s action was reportedly causing delays of 10-15 minutes.
