TotalEnergies service station attendants in France went on strike to protest against rising fuel costs, demanding the oil giant, which owns a quarter of the country’s service stations, raise salaries, Reuters reports.
The company said last month it would cap prices at pumps in mainland France to help customers after the Iran war pushed oil prices to their highest levels in years.
“Total’s employees are receiving no support to cope with this surge in fuel prices, and this needs to be addressed as a matter of urgency,” Sophie Binet, secretary general of the CGT trade union, told France 2 television.
