The union representing performers (SFA-CGT) has announced it will maintain its strike notice for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games scheduled for July 26, 2024. Negotiations with the organizers have failed to yield satisfactory results, leading to concerns over the working conditions of dancers and performers.
The South firefighters union in Lyon has also filed a strike notice, demanding better compensation for their work during the Olympic Games. Firefighters argue that the bonuses offered are insufficient compared to those provided to their Paris counterparts.
Additionally, a minority union at Paris airports has expressed discontent with a recent salary agreement, leading them to file a strike notice for the same day as the opening ceremony. They are calling for increased bonuses for airport staff amid the ongoing preparations for the Games.
