The ESK union has called two strike days at the Mercedes Benz plant in Vitoria-Gasteiz for 25 and 27 April. The reason is that the management is "relentlessly" violating the agreements reached.
This union, which has four representatives on the works council (a total of 29), announced this call this Thursday, calling on the workforce of about 5,000 workers to protest because the management "is using their lives and their time at will."
Failure to comply with final sentences
The union criticizes the nine-hour working day andthe activation of Saturday work through the "imposed" timetable set more than a year ago. The ESK also denounces the "continuing conflict" in labour relations and the company's failure to comply with final sentences.
In a statement, the ESK union criticizes the fact that the management of the plant does not allow the works council to participate in the organization of the work calendar.
In addition, the union denounces the "massive and uncontrolled" hiring ofMercedes through temporary employment agencies. "There are more than 500 people hired under this modality," they say.
