Employees who are aware of this are fighting hard to protect their labor and sweat. The bargaining process in the 6th Term Collective Agreement negotiations, which concerns 4.2 million civil servants and 2.2 million retired civil servants, begins today. The contracting process of more than 700 thousand public workers, which started on May 31, is expected to be concluded this week.
