They denounce that agreeing with Brussels presupposes an “unprecedented transfer of sovereignty” and warn that it “endangers” job creation.
Euskaraz irakurri: CEOEk, Cepymek and ATAk Writes pension erreforma errefusatu dute: “Atzerakoia da bere osotasunean”
The business organizations CEOE, Cepyme and ATA announced this on Friday “frontal opposition” to the pension reform raised by the government of Spain, which they accuse of having a “great gluttonous collection” and a “populist” propositionwhich will “undermine companies’ efforts in wage negotiations” with the unions.
In a joint communiqué, the employers condemn that the maintenance of the pension system is “pushed on the country’s workers and companies by a general increase in contributions”, which they warn “will reduce the salaries of all workers and increase labor costs jeopardizing job creation”.
“The proposal that is intended to be adopted, without prejudice to an exhaustive analysis of the document delivered at today’s meeting, is regressive in its entirety because it implies more years of work, more contributions and less pension“, they emphasize.
For business organizations, it is “inconceivable” that the Spanish government will face pension reform “without the necessary debate and social dialogue after reaching an agreement with Europe on an unprecedented transfer of sovereignty”.
“The proposal violates the necessary debate that should have taken place in the Toledo Pact and is not accompanied by the impact analysis that the social partners have been demanding since the summer,” they emphasize.
