ZAGREB, Nov 20 (Hina) - A 15-minute work stoppage, organised on
Thursday by the Croatian Employers' Association (HUP), was
supported by 4,150 companies, HUP representatives said on Friday.
Forty-five per cent of the companies which joined the protest are
not HUP members, HUP director Zeljko Ivancevic said.
The companies which joined the strike have sent the Government
numerous letters requesting it to change its economic policy and
urgently implement measures which could help solve the existing
economic problems.
The HUP has received no response from the Government so far.
Yesterday's protest was not politically motivated, Ivancevic
said.
Within the next two weeks the association's presidency will reach
an agreement on new measures, the HUP director said but gave no
details as to the nature of these measures.
The HUP will intensify its cooperation with the unions, especially
those gathering employees in the economic sector.
