Juaristi and Aitek of Azkoitia have denounced the "unsustainable situation" in which the workers of the companies are living
About a year ago the labor dispute broke out, workers from both companies have appeared. They believe management has "a covert closure plan." 130 jobs and several families have been reported to be "in danger."
The workers of Azkoitia Juaristi and Aitek , with the same owner, have denounced the "unsustainable situation they are going through in the last year". Since May, the management has established a temporary employment regulation file in these two companies, workers have not been paid four months and five extra payments and thecompany does not have a clear viable plan to deal with the situation.
This has been explained by the representatives of the works councils - members of the LAB and ELA unions - at a hearing held this morning in Azkoitia, where they have said that the "lack of concrete proposals and a clear viable plan on the part of the management" and the "differences in remuneration and information" have "endangered the future of jobs and the dignity of workers", and in view of this situation they have decided to undertake the\ u00A0 mobilizations.
The workers believe that "management is preparing for a covert closure . "" By now, 40% of workers have been forced to leave without any compensation. "They have therefore called for an" immediate and profound change in management, based on transparency and professionalism. "
Among other things, they accuse the management of failing to comply with the terms of the regulatory dossier and of establishing "arbitrary and unfair classifications in payments, with the aim of breaking the union of workers and weakening collective strength". They also accuse the management of concealment of information, and in this regard the workers mention that they have not been informed of the operation "concerning the sale of a pavilion".
Trade unions call on organizations to intervene in the conflict and defend "workers' rights and jobs."
To denounce the situation, workers have called a demonstration for Friday: 19: 00 from Azkoitia Square.
