The university's secretary general, Makhrem Amiriya, stressed that this move comes after all attempts to contact the supervisory ministry have been exhausted, as the dialogue channels have been blocked and the ministry has withdrawn from implementing previous agreements and commitments on settling the professional and social situations of municipal workers.

The governing body of the General University of Municipalities of the Tunisian General Federation of Labour has decided to carry out a public sector strike. The strike is scheduled for January 13 and 14, 2027.

The reasons are the disruption of negotiations, the failure to respond to the professional demands of municipal workers and employees and the decline of commitments. The decision came against the backdrop of disrupted channels of dialogue with the supervisory authority and non-compliance with previous commitments and agreements related to workers' conditions.

The secretary general of the General University of Municipalities, Makron Amiriya, said that the decision was taken after a series of attempts to review the supervisory authority and comply with its commitments.
