In an interview granted to the Euskadi Irratia program “Goiz Kronika”, the person in charge of collective bargaining at ELA declared that the reform will consist “95% in ratifying what Rajoy did”. He also believes that there are two areas to modify: dismissals and collective bargaining.
under the motto “No to this labor reform” (No to this labor reform), this Saturday there will be demonstrations in the four capitals of hegoalde, called by the ELA, LAB, ESK, Etxalde and Hiru unions. The union’s collective bargaining officer IS IT OVER THERE, Pello Igeregi, visited Euskadi Irratia’s “Goiz Kronika” program and clarified that there are “two areas” where they mark the “red line” and that, therefore, “inevitably” would have to be modified: “that of the layoffs and the one referring to the Collective negotiation“.
Igeregi believes that the vote of the labour reform scheduled for Thursday at the Congress of Deputies in Madrid will consist “of 95% of ratify what Rajoy did“. From the union, “it is surprising that, since there are parties in the investiture block that want to improve the reform, the CEOE agreement has been prioritized over a better reform.” The no to the labor reform in Thursday’s vote would remain in force of the labor reform proposed in 2012 by Rajoy but, according to Igeregi, “it would not be negative for us, because the option of repeal would be put on the table”.
He stated that, based on Spain’s commitments to Europe, “it would have to draw up a new reform without the CEOE”, which would mean “a much better scenario”. In this situation, the person in charge of collective bargaining at ELA believes that, as the Basque parties have advanced, “they would remain in the no”.
Thus, he has invited citizens to go out on the streets this Saturday, emphasizing that “there are alternatives and another labor reform is possible.”
