Somos Lanzarote will demand, through a motion that they will defend in the next plenary session of the Cabildo, that the Health Services Management enforce the collective agreement of the security workers of the José Molina Orosa Hospital.
From Somos Lanzarote they denounce that "after Marsegur Seguridad privada S.A, owned by Miguel Ángel Ramírez, was the company awarded the security and surveillance service of the island's health centers, the workers of said service have seen their salary reduced by almost 30%", which has meant an economic loss of about 400 euros per month because the company stopped applying the state private security agreement and began to apply its own business agreement, lower in conditions and labor guarantees.
The organization points out that Marsegur's national agreement was already annulled by the National Court, in whose ruling it is recognized that the salary tables applied are detrimental to the workers compared to the National Agreement of Private Security Companies. Likewise, they recall that other Canary Islands institutions have already denounced in the Courts the serious breaches by Marsegur, as is the case of the Cabildo of Fuerteventura, which ended up rescinding the contract for the surveillance service of the Fuerteventura Convention Center.
Somos Lanzarote will present a motion in the next plenary session so that the Cabildo demands that the Management comply with the labor rights and guarantees of this group of workers. "The public administration cannot be an accomplice to this type of 'pirate' companies by awarding contracts at extremely low prices knowing that it will affect the salaries of the workers and ignoring the fact that they make it impossible to comply with the collective agreement", they point out from Somos Lanzarote.
