From the very outbreak of the coronavirus epidemic, the Worker’s Initative Union — OZZ Inicjatywa Pracownicza (IP) has been working in defence of workers’ rights. The union focuses on the fight for secure and hygienic working conditions (which includes a complete closure of those workplaces whose activity is non-essential during the epidemic). At the same time, knowing that attempts will be made to make workers shoulder the costs of the ensuing economic crisis, the union is preparing for the conflicts that will arise. These activities are carried out by union representatives in branches locally and nationally.

Below is the detailed report on the union’s activities in March 2020.
