Euskaraz irakurri: ELAk ere hiru greba egun deitu ditu Bizkaiko metalgintzan

The Union THE A has announced that it will call a strike in the Biscay Metal the days October 27, 28 and November 2, despite considering these days “insufficient”, after the assembly of delegates held this Wednesday and has defended “continue fighting to achieve an agreement with contents in Metal de Bizkaia”. In this sense, he has opted for a indefinite strikeif an agreement on the agreement is not reached in the three days of strike.

This announcement comes after the CC.OO., UGT and LAB also announced a strike on those same three days, a call that the four unions had been making jointly until now.

The trade union center has recalled that in July it transferred to the rest of the unions a proposal for a two-week strike (from September 26 to October 7), a proposal that was rejected by the unions at the September meeting, where they stated their willingness to carry out only three days of strike.

ELA has criticized the preliminary agreement reached by the other three unions in the Metal from Alavawhich in his opinion is “well below the commitments made.”

According to ELA, this pre-agreement caused “concern” in Bizkaia, and in view of this, it asked the rest of the unions to agree on “minimum contents” that are fulfilled by all the unions and that the salary increases based on the CPI are “for all the metallurgists and not only for those who earn the minimum wage in the sector”, among other issues.

ELA has indicated that “unfortunately, the rest of the unions refused to make commitments regarding the contents to agree on for a new agreement” and has assured that to its “surprise”, the strike call by CC was known. OO., LAB and UGT.
