Summary: Federation of International Civil Service Associations (FICSA) sent a message to António Campinos yesterday (the same day SUEPO publicly made a call for strike)

FICSA has just sent a letter to the EPO's President, António Campinos, this one in English [PDF] even though he can also speak French (France is his country of birth and where he studied). "On 23 May 2019, the Federation of International Civil Service Associations (FICSA) wrote a letter to Campinos expressing concern about the continuing irregularities in the treatment of EPO staff," SUEPO summarised and we've decided to make an image of it. If someone out there can run better OCR through it, we'll add an HTML version as well.

"Is the tone escalating ahead of the strike?"FICSA is no stranger to this conflict and we wrote about FICSA many times before. Is the tone escalating ahead of the strike?

FICSA letter to Campinos

Can someone at SUEPO do us a quick translation of this, e.g. for German and French? It wouldn't be unthinkable/surprising if they already assigned some people to work on that. ⬆
