Attempt to transfer 700 postal workers to different contracts
Outcome
Downfall of the Rinne Cabinet Sanna Marin become Prime Minister of Finland
The 2019 Finnish postal strike was a series of strikes and protests that resulted in the resignation of Prime Minister Antti Rinne and his cabinet. In November 2019, Rinne and local government minister Sirpa Paatero were accused of giving misinformation, specifically about the transfer of work-contracts of 700 Posti (Finland's state owned postal service) package handlers, which would result in lower pay. The strike led to a one-day sympathy strike by Finland's transport sector, which gradually escalated into a general strike by multiple trade unions. It ultimately led to the resignation of Prime Minister Rinne, when the Centre Party withdrew its support from his cabinet.[1]
