Information about planned activities for Action Day against precarious work from VASAS, Hungary
On 7 October Vasas performed a "freezing flash mob", which was an action taking place in major Hungarian cities such as Budapest, Győr, Pécs, Miskolc, Zalaegerszeg, Dunaújváros with cooperation of the cofedaretion /MSZOSZ/.
The objective was to act at the same time and do the same thing. In the city of Győr the union also invited people to an "after party" called "the late night shift", which was a concert with a very popular Hungarian hip-hop group.
The flashmob actions were organized in 12 towns and cities all over Hungary and were very successful. In most places the actions were recorded with videocams and as soon as we have finished cutting and editing the material, it will be uploaded on youtube.......Below you can find some links reporting about the actions......
