30776020800_d1acded749_zPress release from the Gender Secretariat of the CGT of Catalonia

Like every year we have to talk about feminicides, of the unfortunate list of murdered women who writes with blood and silence the heteropatriarchy in which we live. We're sick of having to count dead women, violated, attacked, vexed and exploited, we’re kind of having to think “another? It's enough!”. We already have more than enough to live in this alarm that seems to continue to be normal. Well no, they are not things that happen and enough.

Murdered women are not isolated cases nor are their executioners insane. They are healthy children of patriarchy and they have been victims of an entire social system.

Assaulted women are women who try to discipline and domesticate on the basis of psychological torture, insults o cops.

Raped and abused women are treated as objects of pleasure and aesthetic judgment in the service of males who do not accept that we say No or Enough.

Women raped and infantilized in childbirth, menstruate, abortion or during breastfeeding we are seen as social bodies on which to legislate, decide, medicalize or exercise paternalistic tutoring.

cx2srg-xgaaqwmk-jpg-largeOur pensions are neither sold nor traded
Communiqué SP CGT Catalonia

This Thursday 24 in November there will be a meeting between the government, employers' organizations and the CCOO and UGT unions. The point to be made is, as it has transpired, negotiating the “social peace”. Between baby dolls, However, there are more points on the table. Business organizations have already claimed the need for a new labor reform. Equally, large financial and insurance corporations have begun to promote a media campaign to prepare the ground for a new pension reform. They want to deepen what, the agents themselves, they agreed in January of the year 2011 on that occasion under the auspices of the Zapatero government of the PSOE.

Experience tells us that too many times these meetings result in highly harmful agreements for the interests of the working class, of the majority of the population. In the past we have repeatedly seen how under the pretext of social peace we have left rights and conquests in the ditch of history: now companies are free to fire (at most paying smaller and smaller compensations), they can dispose quite freely of part of our working day by making us work overtime, they can make us work on tasks above our contract rating… and a long et cetera.

I, in the name of social peace, we have also seen how it is necessary to work more now than before 6 years to access a full pension and how the extension of the regulatory bases lowers pensions that, at the entrance, they are already among the lowest in the EU. All these concessions made, always, in the name of a social peace that only benefits those at the top, to the owners of the capital.

At last, what was well known to those affected has been recognized, and that it had been hidden so many times by the mutual employers. The administration allowed mutuals and companies to consider it a 'common disease' in order to save benefits.

A recent sentence 11 of March of the Superior Court of Justice of Catalonia (TSJC) recognizes that continuous work at the computer causes the so-called Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and similar diseases by understanding of the median nerve of the wrist. This judicial resolution opens the door to the recognition of the labor origin of the multiple professional categories that carry out data entry jobs on the computer, as computer scientists, librarians or administrators, following the path of the Supreme Court which has recently recognized it for cleaners or hairdressers.

The judgment of the TSJC of the past 11 March, number 6839/2015, analyzes the case of a worker with the professional category of librarian, and that devoted more than 60% from their working day to computer data entry jobs, determinant que portava a terme la seva feina “supporting both forearms on the work table exerting pressure on the elbows”. This repetitive task with the computer mouse, according to the court decision, was the cause of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, which occurs when the median nerve, which extends from the forearm to the hand, it is pressed or caught at wrist level.

carnies-en-lluita-osonaFrom Càrnies en lluita it has been thought to make a performance / parody of the delivery of the Porcs d’Or to the pig farmers “illustrious” this year, but we will not deliver golden pigs but shitty pigs..
The ephemeris will take place in the sample ship of the Sugar and there will be delivery of prizes with dinner included.

 

Each of the following organizations should award a prize to:

  • Meats in Fight in False Cooperatives.
  • COS to Anna Erra for her deliberate ignorance on the subject, let's say that for that of Don't know / Don't answer.
  • CGT in the unions CCOO and UGT, for their performance as yellow unions in the struggle of the meats.
  • GDT to whom, according to your criteria- either person, business, farm, or organization- is harming the environment.
  • UCFR to Josep Ramisa, partner of Esfosa for his racist statements.

This would be the call made from the meat group. The idea is to make a rally to give a noisy welcome to the participants as they come and go. The official ceremony begins at 8.

We can stay in 3/4 from 7 at Can Pamplona in Vic, this is the link: ( https://goo.gl/maps/xeJkyYaZL5J2). Once they have entered, we would award the prizes referred to above. The concentration would end on the 9.

If you can bring a megaphone, we as CGT do not have.
We will wait for you

NO TTIP act CGT VOThe so-called Transatlantic Trade and Investment Agreement (TTIP in English), they intend to sign between the European Union and the US, and the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA in English), between the European Union and Canada, are two “agreements” who try to sneak us in secret and wanting to go unnoticed, but that would totally transform our reality as workers, and as citizens in our societies.

These two “agreements” they seek to equate the legal frameworks on both sides of the Atlantic to the laws that prioritize profit and theft by multinationals and large economic corporations, with the complicit collaboration of states, governments, intermediaries, companies and other parasites of the capitalist system.

These agreements that they would sign between them, but that in the first place affect us and us, the working class, they are an attack to outline the new panorama that they intend to establish, pretending to argue with the great lie of “economic growth” and the “competitiveness”. In addition to all the areas affected by these treaties, like the ecological, the sanitary, the agrarian, the legal, the politician, The education, etc, obviously sets its sights on the productive system, In the laboral world. If the path to follow is the Yankee labor model, we have it clear.

Attack on labor rights

Regarding labor and trade union rights, keep in mind that harmonization could result in downward equalization. In the United States, labor and union rights are conspicuous by their absence, while in the European Union for now they are guaranteed, but not harmonized, at least formally.

The US has only signed two of the eight agreements of the International Labor Organization (OIT), those opposed to child labor and slave labor, but not those that refer to collective bargaining or the right to organize and associate. Nor has it ratified the International Covenant on Economic Rights (including labor, union and health), social and cultural, adopted by the United Nations General Assembly. In the US there are “facilities to work” (availability for employment or employability), instead of work. The call has been placed Workfare, the acceptance of any job under pressure by the unemployed (From a neoliberal vision, the unemployed are held responsible for their own situation, and not to the socioeconomic context that produces unemployment, poverty and inequality), which is also paradoxically called right to work (right to work). The minimum wage is not established, or safety and health in the workplace.

In addition to all the areas affected by these treaties, we highlight the direct attack that they mean to our rights as workers, already beaten enough for years, but telling that we are still fighting and claiming a world of equal and free people, without flags or borders, without masters or slaves.

Actions against TTIP and CETA

For all this, from the CGT del Vallès Oriental we convene and inform about the actions against the TTIP and the CETA that we will carry out this next Thursday 13 October in Mollet del Vallès, with information tables in the morning and afternoon, reporting on the meaning and scope of these treaties, and how they would affect our lives and that of the planet as a whole. Likewise, he Saturday 15 October a international day of fight against TTIP in all Europe, to which we joined with the screening of an explanatory documentary video and the subsequent debate talk, in Marineta, Saturday 15 October at 6pm.

From the CGT Vallès Oriental we denounce and say NO to these capitalist agreements whose sole objective is to totally dismantle the working class to impose a slave labor market at bargain prices and without any kind of rights..

NO al TTIP, CETA and other free trade agreements!!

A ruling by the ECJ questions the different compensation between permanent and temporary contracts. Lawyers believe that the decision to force changes in the Workers' Statute.

The judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union (TWENTY) questioning the treatment that is given in the Spanish labor market before the indefinite temporary contracts in the event of termination has caused a reaction of interpretations of social, Governments and law. The ruling by the European Court in Luxembourg which requires a worker interim compensation will reverse much of the Spanish labor legislation. There are clear deadlines for this legislation meets this sentence but, moment and while this does not happen, the arguments used by the European Court allow the plaintiffs to have more legal force to convince the judges.

The ruling dynamite all the way recruitment has been doing that all administrations in Spain, both local, the regional and state, procurement of staff in the administration. Which requires a large-scale policy change, not only of the Workers' Statute, which of course should be modified to reflect this judgment, but also regional standards should be modified.

It is a very important decision, which will mark a before and after, and said that a temporary worker should be compensated like it would be a permanent worker when his contract ends.

0 days per year worked is the compensation received by an employee acting once the employment relationship ends.

12 days per year worked receives compensation as a temporary employee once the employment relationship.

Spanish legislation contains various compensation once the employment relationship ends: 12 days per year worked in labor contracts, 20 days per year in permanent dismissal and with 33 days with the permanent unfair dismissal. the interim, meanwhile, have a temporary contract that does not entitle them to compensation once the employment relationship ends. There are also training contracts, without any compensation after timeout.

Post office strike Lliçà d'AmuntPress release:
The workers of the Lliçà d’Amunt Post Office are calling off the indefinite strike

Last monday 5 September, the workers of the Lliçà d'Amunt post office decided to definitively call off the indefinite strike called last 12 August due to lack of hiring. We want to remember that it remained suspended until the management's plans for this month were known..

At first they told us that they would not hire anyone., fact that motivated that on Friday 2 September it was decided to resume the same.

When the address knows the call for the same, It seems that they reacted and common sense has prevailed and they have hired a partner until the end of the month. With this fact the squad will have 7 effective in september.

If it hadn't been for this fight, this summer Lliçà d'Amunt would have had a postal service lower than one 50% of the template in some stripes of it.

The workers of the lliça post office encourage the group of colleagues from the different post offices to organize among themselves to defend the public service. We cannot allow brutal personnel cuts, We cannot allow there to be bag colleagues who do not call them because they are not hired..

We will remain vigilant so that situations like those of this summer do not occur again., and in any case if they are repeated, We would once again remain firm in mobilization as a tool to defend a universal and quality postal service

Thank you for the support received from the CGT union as well as neighbors, and entities from Lliçà d'Amunt.

If we fight we can lose, If we don't fight we are lost!!!

With a 80% follow-up on the first day of strike, and the presence at the midday rally of some 40 people, among workers affected, neighbors and comrades of CGT, today's strike has been successful. We concentrated in the Lliçà d’Amunt Town Hall to go to the Post Office and there, comrade Àlvaro explained the situation and the reasons for the strike. When the fight started, the company replied that we forgot to hire anyone. Today, 12 of August, they had already hired 3 people.

This next Tuesday 16 of August, the assembly of workers of Correus de Lliçà d’Amunt will decide what steps to take in the new scenario. It is once again demonstrated that only with the direct action of the workers are we taken into account, it's the only way to make ourselves heard.

By mails, we want more hiring and less exploitation!

Post Strike Uphill, 12 of August

Aug 112016
 

cgt-postCall for a strike by the distributors of Correos Lliçà d’Amunt for this Friday 12 August of 2016

It looks like the company is right and has announced the hiring of 3 people for the second half of August. Even so, we continue the strike call on Friday 12 August, because until the people are hired, we will not call off the strike. So far this summer, there has been no hiring by the company.

In the CGT we are not kidding: we know that there is a process of degradation of Post Offices, with the complicity and silence of the majority unions. But we follow the example of post offices in Algeciras and Madrid, because we also know and show that the struggle and action of workers for their own interests is a powerful tool that we have.

Correos is solely responsible for the current conflict situation. We insist again that the postal regulations are complied with in the parameters established in the Law 43/2010, from 30 of December, than in his article 24 picks up: “Deliveries will be made, at least, every working day, from Monday to Friday, except in the case of special circumstances or geographical conditions ”.

We invite you all to support your comrades in the fight for the post office, this Friday 12 August of 2016, in front of l’Lliçà d’Amunt City Council () them 12.00h.

The Post Office, we want more recruitment and less exploitation!

Poster CGT elections post office Bages1 2011_1The workers of Correos de repartimiento in Lliçà d’Amunt call an indefinite strike by the 3 last hours from the 12 against the degradation of the postal service

The past 25 In July, the delivery workers of Correos de Lliçà d’Amunt began a series of protests to denounce the degradation of the postal service suffered by the residents of Lliçà d’Amunt. As a result, the City Council asked to meet with us where we explained the shortages of staff suffering from the service. ( 50% Of the template ). Due to this fact, the City Council sent a letter to the company requesting improvements in the service. The only response that Correos has given to our workers ’protests has been to hire a worker until 12 August ( according to them to clean them almost 6000 objects we have a 3 August !) and the coverage of a surplus that will occur from the 3 week of August. Definitely, under these conditions it is impossible to comply with the deliveries established by postal regulations.

Due to this fact, this Monday 1 August the CGT ( with the approval of the assembly of delivery workers ) decided to call an indefinite strike of the 3 last hours from next Friday 12 of August. We don’t like having to make that decision ,but we cannot remain indifferent to the degradation of the postal service. In this way, we want to make a call for the residents of Lliçà d’Amunt to accompany us to the rally that we will convene at 12.00 in front of the City Council.

From now on, Correos will be solely responsible for the conflict situation that occurs in the service. We are once again urging Correos to comply with postal regulations within the parameters established by law 43/2010, from 30 of December than in his article 24 picks up: “Deliveries will be made, at least, every working day, from Monday to Friday, except in the case of special circumstances or geographical conditions ”.
