After last week's cancellation of collective agreements for the whole education system, this union said that some of Jovanovic's moves were unacceptable and that it expected the PM to relieve him of duty.
The union said Jovanovic had asked the principals of elementary and secondary schools not to pay the entire or part of the salaries for November.
The union is especially disappointed by Milanovic's failure to react to Jovanovic's moves and for "accepting without any doubt" everything Jovanovic told him about negotiations on changes to collective agreements in education and his unilateral decision to cancel those agreements.
After the agreements were cancelled, the Education Ministry said it was willing to negotiate on new ones, but the NSZSSH said it wanted real negotiations, yet the ministry would not budge an inch.
The NSZSSH said the government gave the unions in education ultimatums, whereas with those in the health sector it negotiated. Union president Branimir Mihalinec concluded that the government's position was that "education should be destroyed" and that Jovanovic was the executor.
He added, however, that education employees would not mutely watch how the government systematically destroyed their lives.
