📅 13 October 2026 📍 Belgium

ACOD/CGSP and ACV/CSC unveiled a symbolic statue outside the Iris Tower in Saint-Josse-ten-Noode to challenge a hiring freeze, the loss of two leave days and pressure on Brussels public servants. Union delegates contrasted those cuts with spending on external consultants. They also opposed shortening staff evaluation cycles, warning that it could increase pressure and threaten job security. The visual action connected public employees’ rights with the quality and accessibility of services residents rely on.
