LAB has called for a strike in public school canteens in the ACV on 24, 25 and 26 February

The union alleges that the agreement is blocked, that the wage increases already agreed have not been paid and that there has been no progress in ratios, functions and working hours, a situation which, according to the union, is unsustainable and directly affecting the quality of service.

LAB calls for a strike in the canteens of the public schools of the ACV on 24, 25 and 26 February. The union demands, on the one hand, that companies resume collective bargaining and pay the arrears due to workers, and, on the other, that the Department of Education of the Basque Government be required to negotiate effectively.

According to LAB, the conflict has been going on for a long time and has been exacerbated by the blocking of the collective agreement and the failure to implement the wage increases already agreed, as well as the lack of progress in ratios, functions and working hours, aspects that directly affect the daily lives of workers and the functioning of school canteens.

The Trade Union points out that all this is due to the lack of negotiating will of the companies and the Department of Education of the Basque Government, which has direct powers in this area, and therefore urges employers to sit down and negotiate immediately and comply with the provisions of the Convention, and urges the Basque Government to take responsibility and change the regulations of the centres, which are far from the current reality.

LAB stresses that the decision tocall a strike responds to the demands of the workers themselves in assemblies and visits to schools  and warns that the conflict affects not only the working conditions of the workers, but also the quality of the service received by the students. In this regard, it calls on the entire educational community to join the mobilizations and calls for a change in the regulations guaranteeing a quality public service.
