furniture factory 'Savric', who on Tuesday staged protest rallies
on several locations in Zagreb, agreed on a meeting with Finance
Minister Borislav Skegro on Wednesday morning, when they will try

'Savric' workers demand that a loan be secured so that 923 of them
can receive one third of their severance pays.
Only Skegro's promise that the Government will on Thursday adopt a
decision granting guarantees for a loan to 'Savric' can make us give
up staging rallies, Ivekovic said.
About 500 Savric workers ended their protest rallies, which lasted
the whole day, in the Radiceva Street, where they were stopped by a
police cordon while trying to enter the Government building.
A delegation, headed by Ivekovic, was allowed into the building to
meet with government officials. The workers dispersed after
Ivekovic informed them about tomorrow's meeting.
Representatives of the Zagrebacka Banka expressed readiness to
grant the company a loan, however, only with government
guarantees.
