Trade unions at the Electricity Authority of Cyprus (EAC) have announced a two-hour warning work stoppage on Friday, February 27th, from 08:00 to 10:00, protesting against electricity shortages, rising costs, disconnection of photovoltaic systems, and water scarcity. They accuse the government of misguided policies, lack of strategic planning, and inaction, while also stating that EAC is being undermined and weakened. Furthermore, they express complaints about pending labor issues that hinder the operation of the organization. The unions state they are determined to fight to protect EAC, believing they are safeguarding the interests of the country and consumers.
