Thousands of call centre workers in Morocco and Tunisia have lost their jobs after a new French law banning unsolicited calls came into force in August. Call centre companies in North Africa, which are heavily dependent on the French market, have been hit hard. In Morocco, close to 10,000 jobs may already have gone. In Tunisia, around 5,000, many of them informal jobs with no contract and no protection. Our affiliates @FNCAMO_UMT and @UGTT_TN are calling for consultation with unions ahead of major changes to the industry, retraining and better income protection. uniglobalunion.org/news/new-french-law-lea...
