Since the movement against pensions reform in 2023, the STJV has its own internal strike fund.

What is its purpose?

Strike hours and days are not paid. It limits the number of workers who can participate in strike actions and social movements and, for those who can, it can quickly come at important economic cost.

To limit these problems and allow workers to mobilise wide and far, we are calling to collective solidarity by creating strike funds. These funds are transfered to striking workers who need it the most.

How can I donate?

The STJV strike fund is funded in part by money from an internal union fund, fed by a small contribution from our members’ dues, but stays mainly dependent on donations.

To donate to the STJV strike fund, you can simply go on our donation page : https://www.payasso.fr/stjv/dons

How does it work?

A portion of the contributions is allocated by default to the strike fund. In addition to this, donations and any surpluses from the occasional strike funds are put into the strike fund. This is therefore used to supply and supplement the strike funds of the various social movements led by our members.

All along strike movements, the STJV will keep a list of striking workers in the companies where we have sections, to assess the compensation needs and collect the necessary information to compensate workers.

After each round of assessment, striking workers are invited to decide collectively and democratically how to distribute the available funds, taking into account the available information, the needs of each workers and the future of the current movement.
