No love lost this Valentine’s day

Workers at the giant Dutch flower auctioneers FloraHolland are holding a 24-hour ‘warning strike’ today (Friday). And they’re seeking your help in the run-up to this Valentine’s day, the most lucrative day of the year for the flower trade.

While the company looks forward to huge sales next week – it sells an average of over 20 million flowers and plants a day – workers have been fighting for a new collective agreement and help for hundreds of workers who are losing their jobs or being relocated on foot of a major restructuring plan announced last October.

Negotiations have reached an impasse, leaving the unions no alternative but to take strike action. They've asked for your support. CLICK HERE to send a message to company bosses in support of the union's demands.
