  Romania: Arts workers protest over draft employment rules

  On 13 August 2008, trade unions affiliated to the BNS confederation representing actors and other employees of Romania’s public cultural establishments started staging weekly protests against proposed new rules governing their employment. The unions claim that the draft rules would breach labour law and collective agreements. On 2 September, the unions and the minister of culture and religious affairs agreed to hold further talks on the issue, during which the unions would suspend their protests and the government would make no further proposals.
