MEXICO CITY, Sep 4, 2002 (El Economista/Corporate Mexico by Internet Securities, Inc. via COMTEX) -- The union of Autonomous National University of Mexico (UNAM) workers has scheduled a strike for Nov. 1, and is demanding a pay rise of 40% with a 60% to 80% hike in benefits. Union leader Agustin Rodriguez said that the request is based on the historic losses the members' wages have suffered. He warned that the members do not look favorably on the 5.25% or 5.5% increase that has prevailed in the education sector. The UNAM has 24,000 unionized workers.
