The Labour Inspectorateof the Basque Country has detected in Tubos Reunidosa total of 42-47 temporary contracts in breach of the law, and the company must now make a final contract for these workers, as reported by the Works Council following the meeting held this morning at the headquarters of the Department of Economy, Labour and Employment of the Basque Government.
The representative of the ESK trade union and member of the works council, Gorka Abascal, has explained that the information transmitted by the Labour Inspectorate has been "taken by surprise" and that, in his words, "would be a mistake of the company" behind these contracts.
The representative of ESK has complained that the management wants to "force " these workers to sign "voluntary redundancies" without "giving them another chance." The company appears to have put these 42-47 "in the same bag" as the 80 temporary workers who are among the 285 who want to be dismissed through the Employment Regulation Dossier.
According to Abascal, "workers must be given the same opportunities and conditions as permanent workers." They are permanent workers who have the right to apply for voluntary leave or not. "
During the meeting with the Labour Inspectorate, dozens of workers from Tubos Reunidos have concentrated on the doorstep and demonstrated in the vicinity of the headquarters of the Basque Parliament and the Provincial Council of Álava.
The unions have already filed their first appeals against the regulatory file filed by the company.
