Negotiating Table to reach an interprofessional agreement that establishes a minimum agreement of agreement

The headquarters of the Labor Relations Council (CRL) in Bilbao is the stage of the start -up of the negotiating table between Ela, Lab, cc. Oo., Ugt and confedbask To reach an interprofessional agreement that establishes a minimum salary of agreement in the Basque Autonomous Community (CAV).

The meeting is planned from 11:00 am And it takes place after last January 14 the aforementioned trade unions that have been registered separately for this table.

The Union Centrals surpassed their usual division and They joined forces to promote this negotiationThat in any case every Union will in principle tackle with its own proposal and vision.

In addition to investigating the possibility of an interprofessional agreement, there is another parallel route that the trade unions have taken on their part, the trade unions Ela, Lab, Esk, Steilas, Etxalde and HiruWho registered on January 8 at the parliaments of Vasco and Navarro. Popular legislative initiatives (ILP) In favor of a minimal interprofessional salary (SMI) “own” that reflects “the socio -economic and trade union reality of Hego Euskal Herria.

In that ILP they demand that the settings of the CAV and Navarras’ have the capacity to determine such a salary. It is clear from these trade unions that both roads are “complementary” and bet that both formulas work, while CCOO and UGT mainly lean to explore those of the interprofessional agreement.

By Ela The idea that the SMI of Spain “is not worth it as an instrument for the distribution of wealth in the Basque Country and Navarra,” given the various economic structure, is transferred. This trade union defends a minimum interprofessional salary (SMI) for the Basque and Navarra country of 65 % of the nominal GDP per head of the population, which would amount to 1795 euros per month for 14 payments by 2024.

For his part, Laboratory He believes that it is a “class of urgency” to have a minimal interprofessional basic salary, which in his opinion should be at 1600 euros. The trade union believes that it can be obtained through an interprofessional agreement and is convinced that the living conditions of the entire working class can be improved.

Dc. Oo. It will be supplied with “Open and Red Lines” and is not going to apply this first specific figure over that minimum wage, although the aim would be that it is 60 % of the average salary.

By Ugt A minimal salary that is “loyal reflection of the socio -economic reality” and have indicated trade union sources that they are not going to this meeting with a figure is defended.

For his part, Confusion She agreed to participate in this table, although her president, Tamara Yagüe, said a few weeks ago that it is necessary to be “realistic” and that it cannot be “the sustainability or competitiveness of the companies in danger in danger Bringing “, so I hoped that the trade union proposals were ‘consistent’.

This question in favor of a minimum agreement is also shared by the Basque governmentWho is of the opinion that the route must be the interprofessional agreement because it is “basic legislation”, settings do not have the capacity to repair that salary, as stated in the ILP.
