Workers at the Zubieta incinerator have announced mobilizations for a new agreement
They have reported that they have made several attempts to negotiate "an agreement that protects the health of workers", each of which has received "only a refusal from the company".
Workers at the incinerator in Zubieta (Gipuzkoa) have announced demonstrations in support of a new labour agreement that will regulate and reflect their "special and specific working conditions" . They will make stops in March and do not rule out a full day strike in April.
According to the note disseminated by LAB, has been six years since the launch of the CMG1 plant at the Zubieta incinerator and the management of the company EkobaL by the Diputación Foral de Gipuzkoa, since then several attempts have been made to adapt the Road Cleaning Agreement Ggkoa to its conditions.
They report that crematorium workers have "unregulated shifts", work "in an environment of high risk and toxicity" and have "unprotected and unpaid conditions".
The workers have been fighting for a new agreement for a month now, and although they consider the Ekobal company to be "guilty", they have stressed that the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa is "ultimately responsible". For this reason, they have also transferred their claims to the Gipuzkoa Waste Consortium and Ekondain.
Finally, although they "accept and appreciate" Ekobal's invitation to "a meeting," they warn that they intend to "intensify the fight." Every Thursday in March they announce stops and if there is no "progress from the company" they will call a strike for April.
