Romanian teachers’ unions are holding protests Wednesday in front of the Government building and Parliament due to dissatisfaction with the proposed new salary law. Representatives from the “Spiru Haret” Education Trade Unions Federation and the Free Education Trade Unions Federation announced the demonstrations. Union sources estimate approximately 20,000 educators will participate in the protests. The demonstration is scheduled to begin at 10:00 AM in Victory Square, followed by a march to the Parliament Palace. The protest is expected to conclude at 2:30 PM. The core issue revolves around concerns regarding the provisions within the draft salary legislation and its potential impact on educators’ compensation.
