The workers of the City of Vitoria-Gasteiz begin an indefinite closure
- Since 2006, municipal workers have reported a 10% loss of Eros capacity. The workers of the City Council of Vitoria-Gasteiz began an indefinite closure on Monday in defense of the labor agreement.
The protest is being held alternately in the offices of the San Martín neighborhood, from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., from 3:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. and from 10:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. With this shutdown, which has been called by the workers’ committee, they want to denounce that they have lost 10% of their purchasing power due to cuts, and that in front of this, “the city council only offers us a 1% increase.” "Since 2006, we have not experienced a wage increase, losing 10% of the purchasing power."
It is clear that the government’s offer is not enough. "We are calling for a public offer for workers that really stabilizes employment and the situation of temporary workers," the workers' committee said.
Last week, the ELA, LAB, CC OO, CSIF, Erne and Sipla workers’ committee added that it asked Mayor Urtaran to meet to “unblock” the situation.
They warn that as long as these conditions demanded by the workers are not granted, they will continue to conflict. In this way, they will continue with the closure that was launched yesterday, with daily meetings in the Plaza Nueva at 12:00 and in front of the headquarters of the Plaza de Nuestra Señora Blanca of the PNV at 18:00.
