Dear all,
I just found a current open letter from a European union (USF) supporting the demands of the EPO staff to the chairman of the Administrative Council (Josef Kratochvil) asking for an overdue Conference of Ministers!
They reiterated their demands from Oct. 2022!
The EPO Union-website: https://www.suepo.org/
The letter (pdf): https://suepo.org/archive/ex23016cp.pdf
Union Syndicale Fédérale (USF) is the largest federation of workers employed by European or international public services. USF is [ ] aiming at the highest quality standards of public services. These standards are meant both related to internal social issues and provide the best service to the (European) public at large.
They mention as well the critique by industry on poor patent quality I just sent and very briefly the Unitary Patent and the EPOs 50th anniversary.
Best, Johanna
