Tunisia Bank Strike Over Wages
Bank employees and insurance company staff in Tunisia have initiated a three-day sector-wide strike in protest of the deadlocked negotiations over the 2025 wage increase and the banking institutions' refusal to meet their demands, despite the sector achieving strong profits amounting to 1.6 billion dinars in 2024 and deposit growth exceeding 10%. The unions stated that the strike was a stand to defend workers' dignity and due to the lack of serious dialogue, while the Banking and Financial Council issued a statement affirming that the wage increases would be paid and commitments fulfilled, warning of the potential impact of the strike on financial services.
