CCOO has asked ELA and LAB to "reorient" their SMI strategy

According to Unai Sordo, "it must have a minimum wage and then collective bargaining must bring the ball down to the ground" in the territories.

CCOO has expressed no surprise at the decision of the High Court of Justice of the Basque Country (TSJPV) to reject the application of ELA and LAB for the minimum wage. The Secretary-General of CCOO, Unai Sordo, believes that the decision "could only go that way" because the proposed route "had no path".

In this way, Sordo has called on ELA and LAB to "reorient" their position and has advocated "a mobilisation strategy for all Basque trade unions to try to establish a way to negotiate minimum wage agreements."

Sordo says "the road is another"


   

In an interview with Radio Euskadi, Sordo has pointed out that there is room for improvement in relation to the minimum wage established in the State, but "the path to it is different" and not the one proposed by ELA and LAB.
   
"Now, a judgment of the High Court of Justice of the Basque Country has made this clear in some way," said Sordo. , Secretary General of CCOO , stresses that the path to be taken is that linked to the "minimum wages of the agreement".

"The way would be to establish a grand agreement in the Basque Autonomous Community, within which the parties make a commitment to collective agreements, which, in any area, affect more than 90% of Basque workers, and which should constitute at least the minimum wage of that amount," he said.
