A 24-hour strike by builders in Larissa saw participation exceeding 90%, with a major gathering held at Takis Gargalianos Square. Local union leader Dimitris Jimoulis emphasized the need for a collective labor agreement, noting that only large construction firms comply, leaving many workers under individual contracts. He also highlighted the rising number of workplace accidents and called for better staffing of regulatory bodies. Jimoulis affirmed that builders will join the nationwide labor strike scheduled for November 20, signaling ongoing advocacy for improved working conditions.
