Banja Luka preschool educator labor dispute

Overview

Preschool educators in Banja Luka have entered official negotiations with the city to demand improved social and material conditions. The union representing the Center for Preschool Education and Training is seeking a 10 percent salary increase, arguing that inflation and rising living costs have negated previous wage increases.

Beyond pay, the union is requesting that educators' incomes be equalized with other municipal budget users and is seeking solutions for enrolling employees' children in city preschool institutions. The union described educators as being in an “extremely ungrateful position” relative to other budget users and has indicated that further industrial actions may follow if their demands are not met.
