<p>Strikes have brought public transport in Athens to a halt as unions protested against austerity measures.</p>
<p>Commuters pooled cars and taxis to get to work as the 24-hour strike stopped all state-run urban transport services.</p>
<p>A general strike on Wednesday is set to ground flights, close schools and disrupt services.</p>
<p>The latest action is in reaction to a shake-up of Greek employment rules that includes fresh pay cuts and involuntary staff transfers in the public sector.</p>
<p>Parliament is set to pass the legislation. Government officials say the overhaul is required to continue receiving loans from a 110 billion euro international bailout fund.</p>
