Argentine Unions Stage National Strike Against Labor Reform

General Confederation of Labour leads walkout as deputies approve reform 135–115, with amended bill returning to the Senate for ratification

Unions in Argentina staged a national strike to oppose a government-backed labor reform bill debated in the Chamber of Deputies. Deputies approved it 135–115, but amendments send it back to the Senate, including the removal of Article 44 that would have cut sick-leave pay. In calling the walkout, the General Confederation of Labour cited job losses and argued that poverty and unemployment reflect weak growth and investment rather than labor rules.

In Israel, workers at Zim Integrated Shipping Services escalated their protest over a planned $4.2 billion sale to Hapag-Lloyd by cutting port operations and barring the company chair from facilities in Haifa, Holon, and Ashdod, as the Knesset Economics Committee reviewed the deal. In Germany, the train drivers’ union GDL nears the end of a peace obligation with Deutsche Bahn on February 27 amid wage talks, with the union indicating it is likely to call strikes in early March if no deal is reached. In the United Kingdom, staff at the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime plan a three-day walkout on February 24–26 over pay, while in Canada, Yukon University and its employees’ union will resume talks ahead of a potential strike.
