📅 9 November 2022 📍 Belgium

Belgium’s three major union confederations mobilised for a nationwide strike and day of action amid a cost-of-living crisis. They demanded measures to reduce energy bills, protect purchasing power and permit wage increases beyond the legally constrained wage norm. The socialist union FGTB/ABVV argued that record corporate profits contrasted with workers’ inability to negotiate pay. The action linked inflation and energy policy to collective bargaining and distribution of economic costs.
