Vitoria's gardener strike continues after the last meeting ends without agreement
The Vitoria-Gasteiz gardeners will continue with the indefinite strike that began in March after no agreement was reached at the last meeting with the company. The unions denounce that the city council is putting limits on improvements.
The management of the company Enviser, which is awarded the gardening service in the Alavesa capital, and the workers' representatives held a meeting this Wednesday, 30 July, within the framework of the PRECO (voluntary procedure for the settlement of labour disputes).
ELA, ESK and LAB have announced in a statement that the meeting has ended "without any agreement to end the strike."
According to the trade unions, there has been no "significant progress". The company has changed its offer for the years 2026 and 2027 "slightly" and by 2028 "has put forward an offer worse than that put on the table by the Labour Office of the Basque Government".
Enviser's management has "clearly stated" that "the limits for 2028 are set by the City of Vitoria." This has been considered "particularly serious" by the unions.
They consider it "incomprehensible" that the City Council "will not terminate" Enviser's contract when it has been proven responsible for the strike and "will also limit the improvements to be made to the next contract."
Enviser workers have been on strike for 127 days since March 26. Next Thursday, they will present to the city council the protection signatures they have received from the population.
