Plans for more wage cuts...and layoffs have angered some 100,000 public employees...and sent them out to strike.
The strike closed most schools and universities...and limited hospital care.
Proposed 5% wage cuts...follow 3% cuts last year...as the government struggles to cut budget deficits...during a recession.
PM Janez Jansa (foto) is also under pressure to resign over corruption claims.
