Greece: Workers to demonstrate in Athens July 3
Unionized workers to protest at Ministry of Labor and Social Security in Athens, Greece, from 17:00 July 3. Heightened security likely.
Unionized workers plan to protest at the Ministry of Labor and Social Security (Ypourgeio Ergasias kai Koinokikis Asfalisis) on Stadiou in Athens from 17:00 on July 3. The demonstration will denounce proposed legislation that would allegedly increase the amount of worktime that laborers are not compensated for. It was not immediately clear how many participants would attend.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the protest site. Low-level confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the affected area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the protest site. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
