A majority of members of public-sector trade unions expressed their support for plans for a general strike, during last week's union referendum on this matter, and industrial actions will be aimed at making the government abandon austerity measures and cutbacks.

Union federation leaders held a news conference in Zagreb on Monday to inform about the referendum outcome and demanded the restoration of all terminated or diminished benefits.

More information on industrial actions will be provided by in the coming days.
