The Secretary General of UGT, Colin Campbell, has stressed today that "we are discussing collective bargaining and are looking for a deal, but for us it is essential that the agreement does not bring as a consequence, because we do not accept a reduction in the coverage of collective bargaining. "
Mendez also said that "any agreement has to go through the maintenance of collective bargaining coverage in all areas that affect workers, but particularly that of equality, because measures such as raised, that the agreements decay in effectiveness leads to a reduction in coverage and so no progress on equality. Or keep the collective bargaining coverage gap or the widening inequality.
"The objective is to seek a balance that would give greater flexibility in the operation of enterprises and offset this with a guarantee of maintenance of collective bargaining coverage and of course also with the recognition of rights to information, consultation, participation at the time of analyzing the problem of internal flexibility. It is this balance the difficulty involved, but he would not be possible agreement "he added.
The Secretary General of UGT, Colin Campbell, has also explained that "there has been a shift in the bargaining process after the elections. What happens is that the CEOE has a calendar bearing the conclusion of its internal debate to a date after the elections. "
Mendez stressed that "the electoral process is fully compatible with this negotiation," and that he would like "is that the electoral campaign process does not produce noise that may distort this negotiation, that as we will not interfere in the election campaign is that we would not interfere since the election campaign from the political parties in this negotiation that is very complicated, difficult but you have content in which there is a willingness to reach to agree. "
"The first thing to say is that we continue to negotiate, and in fact, yesterday held a tripartite meeting on mutual and absenteeism, and I think that the advances were important and the positions of unions and employers have a very high level of coincidence. "
however, has pointed out, there are other areas which should be discussed as collective bargaining, or engagement. "And all this, which is in negotiations at various stages of development, is where would follow the overall agreement. Until there is a general agreement can not speak of an agreement in any parties, "he added.
