The contract oil and petrochemical workers were first started their strike on June 19. They are demanding better wages and working conditions. Soon the full-time workers joined their colleagues and went on strike.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">This latter fact is significant as the regime tried to intimidate contract workers by threatening them to be fired if they continue their protests and fired some of them.
