According to Eric Sellini, national elected representative of the CGT-Chemistry who had called for a renewable strike, “the large TotalEnergies shipping sites are at a standstill. The strike was renewed in the establishments of TotalEnergies in La Mède, Donges, the Raffinerie de Normandie, Feyzin and Flandres, with rates of strikers between 70% and 100%”.
On the Esso-ExxonMobil side, the Fos-sur-Mer refinery (Bouches-du-Rhône) had 86% of strikers among the morning teams. That of Gravenchon (Seine-Maritime) “was on strike last night”, according to Mr. Sellini, who also reports 80% of strikers on the site of Lavéra (South-East) of the Petroineos group, a subsidiary of the British Ineos and of PetroChina.
“We ask the question [de la reconduction de la grève] every eight hours to employees who arrive, the next deadline is between noon and 2 p.m. The employees are still as motivated to continue the movement, yesterday’s mobilization reinforces the motivation”, indicated Eric Sellini.
