ELA will seek an inter-professional agreementbetween trade unions and employers to enable workers to learn Basque during working hours, which would give them the right to learn Basque in the world of work. 

At a press conference held this morning in Bilbao, ELA's Euskera manager, Pello Igeregi, explained that the main obstacle to workers learning Basque today is "precarious working conditions." 

"Learning Basque and reconciling productive work and family reconciliation is very difficult, especially for women, so having working conditions that allow learning Basque is essential to guarantee the right to learn Basque." 

On the other hand, Igeregi has announced that "in the coming months" the union will make proposals to extend simultaneous translation services to other areas of the world of work. gaine, has censored the fact that the Basque Government "has a translation service, payable to the Basque Government itself and its departments", as well as to the Labour Relations Council.
