Chapter 613 Containment

The capitalists gave in, and the strike at the Dakor textile factory was successfully resolved.

This is an inevitable result. Workers are not very demanding these days, and strikes are just to be able to support their families. The capitalists were willing to make concessions, and the strike ended naturally.

However, the impact has only just begun. The victory of the workers of the Dakol textile factory has undoubtedly stimulated workers in other areas and strengthened everyone's determination to fight for welfare benefits.

This is no longer the matter of the Austrian family. In just one month, the wave of strikes has spread to the entire European continent, and no industrial country can survive alone.

Facing the intensifying labor movement, Franz is also thinking about countermeasures. How to formulate an effective mechanism and at the same time protect the interests of both employers and employees has become the biggest problem for the Vienna government at the moment.

Interests in all aspects are involved, and Franz cannot be careless when formulating policies.

Labour Minister Marjorie hurried over: "Your Majesty, something has happened, and the police in Venice have also gone on strike."

"Police strike", upon hearing the news, Franz doubted that his ears were in addition to the problem. Worker strikes are a common occurrence, and it is the first time that government officials have gone on strike.

Franz fought back his anger and asked, "What's the reason for their strike?"

Deep in his heart, he had already made up his mind to attack the bureaucracy in Venice, and he couldn't even look down on his own people. He was just a bunch of trash.

Labour Secretary Marjorie: "The workload is too high, there's no rest day for a month in a row, and they've also asked for a raise."

After the strike movement broke out, the pressure on police officers in various places has increased greatly, and overtime is a common thing, and Venice is no exception.

However, Franz was still angry. "The work is intense and there are no rest days." These problems are only temporary, and it is not that overtime wages are not paid. Enterprises may be deducted, and no one in the government dares to discount.

As for the issue of treatment, that's complete nonsense. The treatment of public officials in Austria is not low. The treatment of police officers is generally above the average per capita, and even more in big cities like Venice.

Franz slammed the table: "Since there is going to be a strike, they don't have to come back. Send troops to maintain order, and all public officials participating in this strike will be fired on the spot.

The government, state-owned enterprises and other relevant institutions are not allowed to recruit these dismissed personnel again.

Circulate the country as a warning, and tell all public officials to remember their responsibilities.

If you are too tired to do it, give up your position and replace it with someone who is capable. Disrupting and threatening the government at a critical moment is absolutely intolerable. "

Had to fight hard, Franz still remembers the lessons of the February Revolution in France. If it weren't for the malfeasance of the police, it would still be the Orleans dynasty.

The strike by police officers in Venice was undoubtedly a wake-up call for him. If this kind of bad signs are not stopped in advance, there may be a police strike in Vienna tomorrow.

Perhaps in the end, it will spread to other government departments. There are many such examples in the future, such as:

Liberia health care workers on strike after Ebola outbreak;

Ukrainian army strikes during the Russian-Ukrainian conflict;

The Bolivian police were dissatisfied with their treatment and directly occupied the headquarters of the national riot police in the capital, even disguised as civilians, covering their faces, attacked the headquarters of the National Intelligence Service, smashed glass, took away furniture, documents and computers, and set fire to it;

Brazilian police and army...

These rude operations made Franz have to guard against the slightest. As a government official, you must have a big picture. If you have any questions, you can ask, what is it to lose the chain at a critical moment and threaten the government?

As for salary treatment, as long as it is not lower than the per capita income, plus supporting benefits, it is actually a high-income group. After all, most people are averaged.

Labour Secretary Marjorie: "Yes, Your Majesty."

There is no need to object, it is necessary to kill chickens to warn the monkeys. The Venetian police strike at this time, just hitting the muzzle, has become typical.

Thanks to compulsory education, Austria has never been short of public officials. Recruit a group of new people, and then transfer some backbones from various places, and the local police system can soon be restored.

After sighing, Franz asked, "Marjorie, how many people have participated in the strike wave in China, and how much has it calmed down so far?"

Labour Minister Marjorie: "Your Majesty, the wave of strikes has spread across the European continent, and the most severe situation is in France. If the Paris government does not handle it well, a revolution is likely to break out.

The situation in China has improved. Up to now, 1,876 domestic enterprises have gone on strike, and more than three million workers have participated in the strike.

At present, a compromise has been reached through negotiations, and less than one third of production has been resumed. The rest are still under negotiation. The government has strengthened the police force to maintain order. The current situation is temporarily stable, and no large-scale chaos has erupted.

It's just that many strikes have failed to negotiate well, and the conditions between the two sides are too far apart, making it difficult to compromise for a while. "

Franz breathed a sigh of relief at this figure, but in any case, the number of strikers was decreasing, which is a good start.

Judging from the data, there should be many capitalists heeding the government's warning and taking measures in advance to appease the workers, otherwise the strike wave will not be contained.

Whether it's an increase in salary, an increase in benefits, or a mere bluff, that's not what Franz cares about.

"Well, continue to do the ideological work on both sides, but don't directly participate in it. The government is just mediating. If you can't reach an agreement, don't force it.

In the end, it is not human. "

This is Franz's true thoughts. If they can't agree on the treatment, and if they are reluctantly together, there will be problems sooner or later. Instead, it's better to separate them in advance.

Workers can choose to leave their jobs, and capitalists can also choose to lay off employees, as long as they follow the provisions of the Labor Protection Law.

Anyway, the big immigration plan has already started, even if there is a wave of unemployment, it can be digested quickly. As the supply and demand relationship in the labor market changes, the benefits will naturally go up.

It is far better for the market to regulate labor wages than for the government to intervene.

The gap between people is huge, and the same workers have different production efficiency. Some people have good skills and some people have poor skills. If they are treated the same way and eat a big pot of rice, that is the problem.

...

A revolutionary mecca, Paris was at the heart of every labor movement in Europe. This time was no exception. Although the strike wave started in Milan, the enthusiasm of the Parisian workers could not be suppressed.

Unlike the Austrian workers' strike that is over, the Paris workers have held up banners and appeared on the streets to demonstrate, and the marchers have completely paralyzed the city's traffic.

Versailles Palace, Napoleon IV is very headache. If you want to strike, you will strike. If you want to increase your salary, you will find capitalists. What is it like to protest in front of the palace?

Chancellor of the Exchequer Alan: "Your Majesty, this strike is extraordinary, since the Dakker textile strike, the whole of Europe has been in chaos.

The people who are marching now, appearing in front of the palace, are likely to be deliberately guided. We must be vigilant lest the February Revolution recur. "

The French government seems to be stable, but it cannot hold up the revolutionary enthusiasm of the people of Paris. When a strike wave breaks out, as long as there are people with intentions to guide it, it may cause chaos at any time.

Napoleon III is gone, but his political enemies are still there. Orthodox, Orleans, and Republicans were all enemies of Napoleon IV.

These enemies are not only outside, but there are also many inside the French government. The checks and balances deliberately designed by Napoleon III actually have the meaning of drawing snakes out of their holes.

The enemy hidden in the dark is far more terrifying than the one exposed on the bright side. The Orleans Dynasty is a negative teaching material. If it hadn't been for the cooperation of some people in the government, the February Revolution would not have succeeded so easily.

After hesitating for a moment, Napoleon IV gritted his teeth: "The Fifth Division is transferred into the city, and Paris has entered a state of martial law throughout the city, prohibiting any parade activities.

At the same time, we sent people to invite workers' representatives and capitalist representatives to negotiate, so as to quell the turmoil as soon as possible. "

The position under the buttocks is very important, as for the bad influence, Napoleon IV has not cared about it.

The Minister of Police, An Suoqi, hurriedly discouraged: "Your Majesty, no. The current situation has not yet reached that stage. Once the army is transferred into the city, it is very likely to intensify the contradiction and make the situation further out of control."

Paris is different from other cities, demonstrations have become a part of everyone's life, and it is still an indispensable part.

Although it hasn't progressed to the stage of marching in a bad mood, marching in a good mood, and marching when you are bored, it is still good for your physical and mental health to participate in a demonstration every ten days and a half.

Preventing people from marching and demonstrating will inevitably cause everyone's dissatisfaction. If someone guides, it is likely to cause unforeseen consequences.

Napoleon IV shook his head: "As long as the army is under control, the situation is under our control, and those clowns who jump from the beam can't make waves.

The task now is to quell the wave of strikes as soon as possible. Now that many cities are paralyzed, our losses will be very large if we continue. "

Since the death of Napoleon III, he has been insecure, and even the number of guards in the palace has increased by half, as if only the army can increase the sense of security.

Whether this change is good or bad cannot be concluded in a short time, but it is a fact that the relationship with the military has increased.
