Eighty-four Inalsa workers have signed a letter addressed to the president of the public company's works council to comply with the current collective agreement regarding the procedure for filling new positions in its organizational chart. The signatures represent more than half of the workforce. Both the spokesperson and another member of the works council signed this request.
The workers request "that all newly created positions in the organizational chart remain vacant until definitive approval between the company and the workers, as the collective agreement may be violated; and those already created and susceptible to being filled be carried out as stipulated for such cases in the current labor framework."
The staff makes this request because the committee has open negotiations with the company's management (the judicial administrators, since the company is under intervention) to develop a new organizational chart, which has not been previously approved by the workers' assembly.
In this new organizational chart, three new inspector positions appear, and, according to them, two of them will be occupied by two members of the works council without an internal competition being held to be able to apply for the position as established by the collective agreement. There are also three other new positions for supervisors.
Since the employment regulation file (ERE) was approved for 35 workers last March, several new positions have been created, including a human resources sub-director. Parallel to the ERE, the workers who remain in the company signed a letter of guarantee that guarantees their acquired rights even if they change jobs.
Bonuses
With the restructuring of the company and the guarantees signed, some workers will continue to receive bonuses that do not correspond to them. Last December, the administrators, at the request of the works council, withdrew the shift bonus, which is around five hundred euros per month, from a worker who was a member of that committee, because shifts are no longer done in his department. In March, in the midst of the ERE negotiation, the administrators recognized said bonus.
