The Company Committee of the Zonzamas landfill approved on Monday a strike notice, due to delays in the payment of wages that workers have been suffering in recent months, according to César Reyes, secretary of UGT, the majority union in the complex.

Last month, the workers of the Zonzamas landfill had a delay in the payment of wages. "Then we were told that it was a specific problem, due to a signature problem with the comptroller who is carrying out the seizure of the service," says César Reyes.

However, the secretary of UGT confirms that the Cabildo, which is in charge of managing the Zonzamas landfill since the seizure occurred, has not paid this month's payroll to date. "The delays are not significant, but they cause serious problems in the family economy of the workers, since many of them have to pay personal or mortgage loans and the delay in payments means an increase in the payment of those fees."

For the moment, the strike notice has been approved by the Company Committee, waiting to meet with the staff delegates to see what day the strike would be called, which, according to César Reyes, would have an "indefinite character".
