Unions representing employees of
the companies controlled by the city of Rome said Monday that
they will hold a "general strike" on Friday.
They said the action is in protest at how companies like
public transport agency ATAC and trash firm AMA are managed and
at the general state of degradation the city is suffering.
"There has never been a strike like this. It is the first of
its kind," said Alberto Civica of the UIL union.
"Obviously we won't enjoy bringing the city to a halt but
they are killing the city-controlled companies".
