Seko warns of train strike, reports Ekot.

If no agreement is reached, around 1,200 members will be taken out on strike in three different stages. 

The strike could take effect from May 11. 

The notice concerns members of Öresundstrafiken, SJ, Green Cargo and MTR in the Stockholm metro.

– This is nothing more than a more modern form of serfdom. A large majority of our members in rail traffic have difficulty combining their work with leisure and family life, says Seko's union chairman, Gabriella Lavecchia.

SEKO believes that they have been pressured into giving notice of strike.

– Our counterpart, Almega Tågföretagen, has said in the negotiations that they do not want to discuss and negotiate further if we do not give notice. Now it is up to proof, says Seko's contract secretary, Ulrika Nilsson.
