The New Trade Union of the Kosovo Energy Corporation (SRKEK) has called on employees from all divisions to take part in a protest planned for tomorrow, November 12. The gathering will be held outside the management and Board of Directors’ offices in Toskanë.
The protest will begin at 11:00 a.m. According to the union, the decision to organize it came after management and the Board of Directors failed to respond positively to demands previously submitted by workers’ representatives.

A statement signed by the New Trade Union’s chairman, Xhelal Jashari, says employees in mines and power plants work every day in difficult and dangerous conditions. According to the union, they face dust, extreme temperatures and high levels of risk without receiving adequate financial compensation.
The workers are demanding a decent wage for everyone, payment of a 13th-month salary, improved working conditions and an assessment of workplace hazards.
SRKEK has called on employees of DPQ, TC Kosova A, TC Kosova B and Physical Security to join the protest and demand that their rights be upheld.
“We are not asking for charity or privileges, but for the dignity we deserve for the work we do. Tomorrow, we are not coming out to spite anyone, but for ourselves and our families,” the union’s appeal says.
