Strike in public education canteens until Thursday
Today's unemployment will begin with mobilizations in Bilbao and tomorrow there will be protests in the three territories of the Basque Autonomous Community.
The strike will take place until Thursday in the canteens of Basque public education. The day begins with mobilizations in Bilbaoand tomorrow there will be protests in the three territories of the Basque Autonomous Community.
The strike affects the kitchens, offices and monitors of the companies that run the directly managed school canteens. The unions report thatthe companies have not moved from the previous offer since it was presented in negotiations with union representatives.
This proposal proposes equating the salaries of outsourced workers with those of the staff of the Department of Education for the year 2027-2028. However, the trade unions consider this timetable insufficient and demand the immediate implementation of the measure.
They reiterate that equal pay is already provided for in the collective agreement signed in 2023, and therefore demand that it be implemented without waiting for the next courses . Mari Cruz Rodriguez, representative of ELA, reiterates that the agreement establishes this commitment and argues that it must be implemented as soon as possible.
Yesterday's meeting between trade unions and employers ended without progress, and the two sides will meet again tomorrow to try to bring positions closer together.
In parallel with the labour dispute, the Department of Education has announced organizational changes in the catering service. The Basque Government will reduce the ratios in primary school canteens to a maximum of 30 pupils per monitor in 2027-2028, and plans to strengthen the care of children's education.
In view of the call for a strike, the Basque Government has established minimum services to ensure the basic functioning of the canteens and to ensure the care of students during the days of unemployment.
