Ninety percent of workers of the Eni oil and gas group have participated in a one-day strike to protest against plans to close or convert some of its unprofitable refineries. All three major unions joined the strike, targeting the country’s government, which has a majority share in the Eni group. The unions said the closures are expected to lead to over 6,000 layoffs and jeopardise the country’s industrial future.
