The governing bodies of the Biscayan Federation of Metal CompaniesFVEM, have given green light to the proposal presented by the Basque Government for the Bizkaia metal agreementwhich affects more than 50,000 workers.
In a press release, the FVEM has ensured that this ratification “represents a significant effort on the part of the companies” and that it is accepted “from a perspective committed to the future, to the industry and to the people who work in the sector” .
He also adds that “he hopes that this latest advance will also be validated by the union majority” and thus make it possible to sign an agreement “that brings the stability that the industrial sector needs.”
The unions that make up the union majority at the negotiation table of the metal agreement in Bizkaia, CC. OO., LAB and UGT, held this Wednesday assemblies of their respective affiliates to discuss the new proposal presented by the Basque Government in the third meeting of the mediation process between the parties promoted by the Executive of Vitoria-Gasteiz.
The unions that make up that majority previously assessed that the new offer of the mediators “has no setbacks.” ELA, however, maintains that this platform is “very similar” to the one presented a week ago.
The new proposal of the mediators appointed by the executive of Vitoria proposes an agreement for the period 2022-25 and a salary increase of 15% with a review clause in accordance with the CPI for each year of validity of the collective agreement, In addition, it offers subrogation for facilities staff, the start of permits and licenses on a working day, and the enjoyment of what is established by jurisprudence, as well as 8 hours of free disposal, 4 of them of a non-recoverable nature.
It includes improvements of up to 28,000 euros in disability and death insurance at work and the inclusion of LGTBEI+ people in harassment protocols.
