They've been on unemployment again since tonight at Tubos Reunidos, just outside the last negotiating meeting
On Tuesday there will also be a 24-hour stoppage, and from Wednesday to Sunday there will be four-hour stoppages in each shift.
The management of TubosReunidos and the works council will begin tomorrow, Monday, the last negotiating meetingof the Employment Regulation Dossier (ERE). The workers have called for the withdrawal of the ERE with no intention of negotiating the terms.
The meeting will be accompanied by a 24-hour strike at the Amurrio factory from 22:00. Tuesday's strike will also be 24 hours, with four-hour stops per shift from Wednesday to Sunday.
If no extension or agreement is reached, the company will henceforth havetodecide what steps to take.
On the other hand, trade unions may file an administrative complaint with the Labour and Social Security Inspectorate and a complaint with the Social Court for the company to suspend the ERE .
For the time being, the positions between staff and managementare far away: at previous meetings, the company has improved its offer of redundancies.
It may also be the case that tomorrow's appointment improves the offer — as is customary at the last negotiating meeting — but, so far, the trade unions have refused to negotiate these conditions as an unjustified ERE. They have therefore called for the suspension of the ERE.
In addition to a crucial meeting, protests and rallieshave also been called for Monday.
In addition, on Tuesday, a meeting is convened at the entrance to the Alavesa factory to report on the latest information, and it will then be known whether the consultation period is over.
