Euskaraz irakurri: Bizkaiko metalgintzako hirugarren greba egunaren jaripena % 85ekoa izan dela diote sindikatuek
The ELA and LAB union have coded in more than 85% follow-up of the strike declared this Friday in the metal sector of Bizkaia by ELA, CC. OO., LAB, UGT, ESK, CGT and CNT in defense of the renewal of their agreement. The mobilizations of the first hour “have been very numerous”, although he has denounced the unjustified and disproportionate action of the Ertzaintza.
From ELA they assure that large, medium and small companies have supported the strikes and that “the three strike days are a display of power huge by the metalheads of Bizkaia”.
He also emphasized that the mass demonstration Afternoon in Bilbo “has been a call for a metal deal that divides the wealth fairly”. ELA has confirmed that “in the face of an employer who has only shown that he wants to block the negotiations, the instrument of struggle and strike is of fundamental importance”.
For its part, the LAB union has assured that production has again been interrupted at emblematic companies in Bizkaia such as ITP, Arteche or Estampaciones Bizkaia.
From LAB they have denounced “the police brutality, the violent attitude against workers’ rights in these days of strike, the beatings, the identifications, the searches, the searches and the arrests”.
Around 52,000 workers and workers of the sector of Biscay metal were called today, Friday, to a new day of strike, the third in eight days. Specifically, the unions have called the strike because they are still getting “no response” from the employers to their joint package of demands, the central axis of which is a wage increase from the CPI +1, when the employers have offered a maximum of 2%.
