Cemil Tugay Reacts angrily at Protesting Workers | Video News – Latest Updates
Workers protesting for their rights in Izmir were met with hostility by the Mayor of Izmir, Cemil Tugay. The workers, who were employed in public toilets under the Izmir Metropolitan Municipality, claimed that their social rights were being violated and decided to go on strike. On the 5th day of their protests, the workers gathered in front of Tugay’s office to discuss their demands. However, instead of listening to their concerns, Tugay threatened the workers by saying that they would not be able to work if they continued to protest.
In response, the workers pointed out that the logo of Izmir Metropolitan Municipality was on their uniforms, indicating that their fight for rights was directed towards the municipality itself. Tugay tried to dissuade them by mentioning the high rate of unemployment in the city and promising to take care of them.
Subcontracted workers in Izmir have repeatedly protested in the past for not receiving their social rights. This latest incident highlights the ongoing struggle of workers in gaining recognition and fair treatment in the workplace.
