Education CGT strike 18 January 2017CGT convoca vaga i concentració davant del Parlament el 18 de gener durant el debat de pressupostos per revertir les retallades a l’ensenyament públic #18GVagaEnsenyament

Per revertir les retallades a l’ensenyament públic:
Wednesday 18 of January of 2017

Concentració de 12 a 14h davant del Parlament

El sindicat CGT Ensenyament convoquem als i a les treballadores de l’ensenyament públic no universitari de Catalunya a una jornada de VAGA el DIMECRES 18 DE GENER, coincidint amb la setmana de debat d’esmenes parcials als pressupostos de la Generalitat de Catalunya per l’any 2017.

Des del passat mes d’octubre hem fet, junt amb altres sindicats, xerrades i assemblees a nombrosos centres explicant perquè considerem que ara és el moment de començar a revertir les retallades i perquè creiem que passar a l’ofensiva i anar a la vaga mentre s’estan debatent els pressupostosi aprofitant l’actual situació política a Catalunya ens dóna veritables opcions d’assolir les reivindicacions que plantegem.

Volem fer palès que aquesta convocatòria sorgeix després d’un treball i d’un debat previ amb la resta de sindicats, amb els quals vam concretar les reivindicacions i vam coincidir en la necessitat d’anar a la vaga per pressionar a l’administració perquè les incloguin dins dels propers pressupostos tal i com s’explica al manifest intersindical. També després de molts debats als centres, on molts companys i companyes han manifestat que consideren bàsic que aquesta no sigui una altra vaga d’un dia que serveixi només per expressar la nostra disconformitat sinó que es convoqui en uns terminis i amb unes perspectives de continuïtat que generin prou pressió com per aconseguir realment les reivindicacions plantejades.

És en aquest sentit que a la darrera reunió intersindical no hem pogut arribar a un acord pel que fa a la/les data/es de la vaga. La resta de sindicats de la intersindical han decidit convocar una única jornada de vaga el dia 9 February. Des de CGT entenem que és massa tard i amb les decisions sobre assignacions pressupostàries ja preses, atès que els debats d’esmenes parcials als pressupostos estan fixats entre el 16 and the 20 January (el d’ensenyament està previst per al 18 January) i que a més, no permet cap perspectiva de continuïtat possible dins dels terminis de l’aprovació definitiva dels pressupostos que tindrà lloc el mateix 9 de febrer sobre una proposta ja tancada. Fer una jornada de vaga aïllada i quan ja està tot decidit desvirtua el compromís que tots els sindicats havíem pres davant del professorat.

Des de CGT Ensenyament considerem fonamental que la vaga arribi abans, mentre s’estan debatent i decidint els pressupostos i que tingui possibilitat de continuïtat. És per això que, sense descartar més convocatòries, inclosa la del 9 February, us convoquem a aquesta primera jornada de vaga en ple debat d’esmenes parcials de l’àrea d’educació.

Davant d’aquest desacord en el calendari, el nostre plantejament a la intersindical ha estat que CGT convoquem ambdues dates, ratificant la segona amb els nostres companys i companyes, però la resta de sindicats ha decidit no incorporar-nos al cartell conjunt del 9 perquè no renunciem a convocar també el 18 January. Nosaltres seguim fent una crida a la resta de sindicats a fer una primera convocatòria de vaga mentre s’estan debatent i decidint els pressupostos d’ensenyament.

Es convoca concentració de 12 a 14h davant del Parlament de Catalunya. Properament concretarem les accions que acompanyaran la vaga i de l’assemblea que durem a terme per ratificar i concretar la seva continuïtat. Us demanem que feu difusió d’aquesta convocatòria i de les raons per les quals des de CGT trobem essencial que tingui lloc en els terminis esmentats. Si voleu que anem al vostre centre a explicar-ho i debatre-ho amb vosaltres o teniu qualsevol altre dubte o consideració no dubteu a contactar-nos.

CGT formation: Temporary hiringConference of affiliates and delegates of the CGT of Catalonia

taught by TSJC magistrate Carlos Hugo Preciado with the title: “Temporary recruitment and temporary contracts following recent EU court rulings”

The sentence of 14/09/2016 of the Supreme Court of Justice of the EU (SSTJUE) sets important limitations on the chaining of contingent contracts and interim contracts in public administrations. In order to know the basic aspects of the new legal situation and its possibilities for our trade union action, the CGT of Catalonia has planned the following

The training session will take place on Friday 13 January, from 10 a 14 h in the Fort Pienc Civic Center event room (Fort Pienc Square, 4-5, Barcelona) (link to map)

This issue affects public administrations in a very special way, in the field of health and education. Given that the capacity of the room is limited, we ask that you register in advance by email formacio@cgtcatalunya.cat indicating your federation/union/union section and the number of people.

We attach a poster.

El Tribunal Suprem avala que tots els sindicats puguin denunciar la vigència dels convenis

 labor law, News, Telemarketing
Dec 312016
 

Conveni TelemarketingCGT informa d’una transcendent sentència per a tota la negociació col·lectiva que dóna la raó a la demanda interposada en solitari per aquesta organització quant al conveni de Contact Center.

Fa més de dos anys CGT va denunciar la vigència del Conveni del Telemarqueting. Un conveni que havia tingut una vigència de 5 anys i que des del nostre punt condemnava als treballadors de Telemarqueting a la precarietat. Havia arribat el moment de negociar un nou conveni i de canviar les nostres condicions laborals.

Encara que després de la denúncia de CGT es va començar a negociar el nou conveni el Ministeri de Treball no va donar per vàlida nostra denúncia. Va dir el Ministeri de Treball que per començar a negociar el nou conveni havia d’haver-hi acord de la majoria sindicats de la taula, no valent la denúncia de CGT, un sindicat amb la representativitat suficient per a això.

En aquesta sentència del Ple de la Sala de Social del TRIBUNAL SUPREM (Sentencia núm. 1035/2016) ens dóna la raó i es declara la validesa de la denúncia del II Conveni Col·lectiu de Contact Center promoguda per CGT el 28 d’octubre de 2014. A més s’anul·la les Resolucions administratives impugnades, from 5 November 2014 (Sotsdirecció General de Relacions Laborals) i de 16 of December of 2014 (Ministeri d’Ocupació i Seguretat Social, Sotsdirecció General de Recursos) pel que es reconeix el dret de la CGT al fet que el Ministeri d’Ocupació i Seguretat Social registri el seu escrit de denúncia del II Conveni Col·lectiu de Contact Center.

La sentència deixa clar que “limitar la possibilitat de denunciar un conveni col·lectiu negociat conforme al Títol III del ET als qui ho han subscrit resultaria poc compatible amb la seva eficàcia normativa i general (art. 82.3 ET) i fins i tot podria presentar problemes de compatibilitat amb la llibertat sindical (art. 28.1 CE).”

A més abunda recalcat que “El pluralisme sindical queda indirectament soscavat si s’imposa una unitat d’acció per a un acte els efectes del qual no són directament normatius i l’abast dels quals pot venir condicionat pel conveni al fet que es refereix. En suma: solament si els termes legals són inequívocs hauríem de restringir la legitimació per denunciar el conveni als qui posseeixen legitimació plena per negociar. I les previsions normatives, lluny de ser inequívoques en tal direcció més aviat aboquen al resultat contrari.”

CGT es congratula d’aquesta sentència assolida en solitari contra el Ministeri de Treball, la patronal i la resta de sindicats legitimats per negociar aquest conveni, dels quals recorda que cap es va adherir a aquesta demanda. Aquesta sentència solament abunda a millorar els drets dels treballadors ara i en el futur ja que CGT utilitzarà tots els seus drets per defensar-los, malgrat a qui li pesi.

The real solidarity with refugees is paid repression, Mikel Begoña and Freedom!

 COMMUNICATIONS, International, Migrations, European Union
Dec 302016
 

Mikel Begoña and Freedom!Once again. If a few weeks ago our partner Lola had to suffer the real face of a Europe sick of undisguised institutional racism, now it's Begoña and Mikel's turn. As part of a campaign of disobedience, members of the Permanent Social Forum of Euskal Herria have been arrested 28 of December by Greek police, while trying to get eight refugees into a caravan.

The story that each refugee carries in her backpack has several pages of dangerous paths, sometimes fleeing wars or political persecutions, others of misery. If you are lucky enough not to be one more number to add to the thousands of drownings in the Mediterranean every year, a clandestine life awaits you across borders until you reach your destination, where the state repressive apparatus will look for you to lock you in a CIE or send you to a safe area, such as a Turkish concentration camp.

In this succession of crimes against humanity there are people who extend their hand in solidarity. This is unacceptable to states. And that's because it's not just about questioning the racist assembly of fortress Europe, but because it also dismantles false institutional discourses: a rotten mask that can no longer cover the true face of the European capitalist system.

The CGT of Catalonia shows its active solidarity with the two detained comrades and makes itself available to its support group.

La campanya Desmilitaritzem l’Educació exigeix la no presència militar a l’Espai de l’Estudiant de Valls

 Antimilitarist, Education
Dec 282016
 

no-a-la-guerraEls col·lectius i entitats que donen suport a la campanya “Desmilitaritzem l’Educació” al Camp de Tarragona han entrat una instància als registres dels Serveis Territorials d’Ensenyament a Tarragona, al de la Diputació de Tarragona i al de l’Ajuntament de Valls on s’hi demana que aquestes institucions escoltin la veu del Parlament i apliquin la Moció sobre la Desmilitarització de Catalunya i duguin a terme totes les accions i gestions necessàries, adoptin les mesures adequades i pertinents i vetllin perquè l’exèrcit deixi de tenir presència d’ara endavant en les properes edicions de l’Espai de l’Estudiant que es celebra a Valls cada any.

La campanya té com a objectiu la defensa d’espais de lleure i formatius lliures d’exèrcits i d’armes i vol donar resposta a una reclamació de tota la comunitat educativa de fa temps que, sens dubte, ha esdevingut un autèntic anhel social. El document entrat a registre recorda als representants institucionals el text de la moció que fa referència a la presència de l’exercit, en aquest cas, a l’espai que s’organitza a la capital de l’Alt Camp:

e. Evitar la presència de l’exèrcit en qualsevol centre educatiu i de formació i evitar també que sigui present a espais educatius i promocionals, com el Saló de l’Ensenyament, el Saló de la Infància, a Barcelona; el Saló d’Esport i Turisme de Muntanya o la Fira de Formació Professional, a Lleida; l’ExpoJove, de Girona; o l’Espai de l’Estudiant, de Valls.

La Plataforma Desmilitaritzem l’educació lamenta que sigui la plataforma la que s’hagi d’encarregar de fer el seguiment de l’aplicació d’un mandat del Parlament, tasca que haurien de fer les mateixes institucions, però alhora assegura que no cedirà fins que aquestes instruccions es facin efectives a tots els espais educatius perquè té clar que les armes no eduquen, les armes maten.

Els col·lectius que donem suport a la campanya són: Campanya Desmilitaritzem l’Educació, Coordinadora Tarragona Patrimoni per la Pau, CUP el Camp, Deixem de ser una illa-Secció Sindical de CGT Ensenyament Tarragona, USTEC Tarragona, Coordinadora Obrera Sindical (COS) el Camp, Endavant El Camp, Stop Mare Mortum Tarragona, Sindicat d’Estudiant dels Països Catalans (SEPC) el Camp, Arran el Camp, Casal Sageta de Foc de Tarragona, Casal Popular La Turba de Valls, Ateneu Llibertari Alomà de Tarragona.

We start the year by protesting for freedom!

On the floor the walls of the prisons!

https://marxapresonsbcn.noblogs.org

He 31 of December, a Barcelona, and in many other cities around the world, we live the New Year in a different way.

Durant 20 years we have approached the Wad-Ras women's prison, at the CIE in Zona Franca and in the old Model prison to send our voice to those people who are locked up and those who keep them inside.

"Because you do all this if it's useless? Prisons have always existed!
If they weren’t there, the thieves, murderers and rapists, they would camp the world without the punishment they deserve, Hi?”

We are told that the law is the same for all but the 80% of the inmate population is for reasons related to social inequalities and private property, and the 99% belongs to the popular classes.

We are told that someone who has done something wrong is in prison, but Spain has one of the highest rates of prisoners in Europe.. However, it has one of the lowest crime rates on the continent. We add the gag law to it?

In the meantime…
Real thieves work in banks and companies.
The real killers patrol our cities with impunity.
The rapists are forgiven and the victims are questioned.

Prison is a weapon of the rich and powerful against the poor and dissidents!

For a society without exploiters or exploited, for a society without aggressors or victims, for a future without powers or repression.

We walk together against the prison!

 

 

CGT does not participate in False Mobilizations

 COMMUNICATIONS, Labour reform
Dec 132016
 

Communiqué of the Permanent Secretariat of the Confederal Committee of the CGT

CGT will not attend these "instrumental mobilizations of the regime unions on the days 15 i 18 of December" since the only thing they aim for is to position themselves, with "some legitimacy", in the social dialogue negotiations they have been carrying out with the different governments since 1977.

The unions of the Concertation have been basic tools for the domestication of wage earners, inserting them into the unique dynamics of the continued Social Pact, signing the Labor Reforms – increasingly precarious – and thereby allowing employers to maintain or improve their rates of profit and to implement a neoliberal and deregulated model of working conditions. They have guaranteed with this the “pau social” in exchange for prominence and prebends for their organizations and their domes.

These unions, with huge membership in past dates, with influence in all strata, with a presence at all negotiation tables, omnipresent in television and media, participants in business dinners, governmental and unofficial, they admitted the European Union unconditionally in the 86 and they admitted Maastricht in the 93. Then they only made grandiloquent statements and did not lift a finger against this Europe of Capital and the Markets.

The several dozen Labor Reforms since the Moncloa Pacts (1977) and Public Pension Systems, until the last Reform of the PP in 2012, they have destroyed the counterpower of the working class, through these "consensus and social dialogue" policies, leaving us in a situation of integral precariousness, poverty and social inequality, to extremes never known in the Spanish state.

Despite fiscal policies, tax and social, called "adjustment and austerity", they have never taken to the streets with serious and firm intentions to confront these criminal policies that have been implemented against the majority of people.

to mobilize, it is to have conviction and the will to search, present and defend alternatives and actions with which:

- Oppose collective redundancies (to millions) through the ERE.
- Oppose the fact that the unilateral will of the employer determines the working conditions.
- Oppose the fact that workers lose the agreements and our labor relations are individualized and available to the employer.
- Oppose the lowering of wages, on the double salary scales.
- Defend the stable and fixed contract in all markets, both public and private and do not accept contracts and subcontracts, job loan, outsourcing, privatizations...
- Defending the Public and the reversion to the Public of everything privatized.
- Defending the rights and freedoms that have been stolen from us and confronting the repression they have developed against the most consistent people of the class they claim to represent.

The CGT is in the streets with those who suffer, with precarious and precarious, with the millions of people whose work has been taken away from them, the ceiling (home), the pa (salary and social benefits), freedom, and with the social majority, that we have been scammed with policies that have "saved the banks with hundreds of billions", to companies and the rich, through lowering their taxes, and occupations have been carried forward, pensions, Health, education and care...

The mobilizations of 15-M, the tides, the Dignity Marches, the Platforms in defense of the Public, alternative trade unionism, yes we have legitimacy, because we have proposed alternatives, because we have carried out processes of self-management and an alternative social economy and because WE HAVE BEEN IN THE STREETS confronting this predatory capitalism.

The "unions of the regime", not only have they been hidden all the time of the crisis-scam but that, in your "DNA", it is recorded that "collaboration with governments and business" is where they have their raison d'être.

CGT will return to the streets to defend the claims and proposals that we have never abandoned, those from whom we build a society of all, egalitarian, and we understand that, as the slogan we shout in the Manifestations says:

"THERE IS NO OTHER WAY, OR WITH THE EMPLOYER, OR WITH THE WORKING CLASS"

In this process, you will find an opportunity to put an end to it

Meeting of prevention delegates 16 of December 2016 in Barcelona and presentation of the new Occupational Health website of CGT Catalonia

Friday 16 In December, CGT Catalunya convenes a new meeting of CGT Catalunya prevention delegates, from 10 a 14h. in the Can Batlló space (c/Constitution 19, corner Mossèn Amadeu Oller), saints, Barcelona.

The call will have two points:

- Presentation of the new Occupational Health website of CGT Catalonia, where its practical contents will be explained (written models, guides, links,…)

- Later we will divide into Work Groups to share common needs and problems from different areas of action. So far the Working Groups already prepared are Public Administration, asbestos, Metal, Psychosocial and Mutual Risks, but we are open to proposals from Delegates to create more Working Groups.

As in the previous two Meetings held recently, we understand that it is a useful space for debate and reflection to bring together the struggle in the field of occupational risk prevention.

It is not necessary to register previously.

In this area, we recall that the Occupational Health Secretariat created a Telegram group of CGT Catalunya prevention delegates with the aim of sharing doubts, interesting materials and comments on occupational health, which currently has more than 300 delegates participating and it is a dynamic space where doubts are resolved by applying mutual support, pooling the experiences of each company and facilitating coordination.

If there are prevention delegates or interested parties who are not in the group and want to participate, they must contact the Secretary of Labor Health.

We will wait for you!

We Network and Mutual Support in the field of Occupational Health!

Or their benefits or our Health!

Lola gutierrez, imprisoned in Greece for being in solidarity

c / Freixa, 6 Barcelona (FCG La Bonanova) at 10 am
#LolaFreedom SOLIDARITY! SOLIDARITY!

Our partner from CGT, Lola gutierrez, has been imprisoned in Greece since last Sunday 27 of November, after his arrest at the Athens airport, accused of helping a Kurdish refugee flee the war and, probably, of death.
We celebrate that there are people who, due to their active involvement in the face of injustice, act on the ground, risking his own life and freedom. It turns out that our partner is one of those many supportive and generous people who have the courage to confront repressive regimes like that of Greece, country in which she remains in prison as she is considered an enemy of the state and will only be released when she is extradited and reaches Barcelona.

The European Union's agreements with Turkey to act as a barrier to immigrants and the humiliating treatment in Europe of those fleeing hunger, wars and death, You can have no other response than to disobey all laws that prevent people seeking refuge from being saved, through actions that allow helping all those who want to continue to have a future.

Illegals and criminals are part of the governments of countries that pledged aid and practice hot returns or internment of immigrants. We still remember the shameful photos of European leaders and their promises of aid to refugees.
From the CGT we are going to continue demanding the freedom of our colleague Lola Gutiérrez, we want her in Barcelona NOW, and we are not worth excuses from a "progressive" Greek government that imprisons those who are in solidarity with the most disadvantaged.

BEING SOLIDARITY IS NOT A CRIME
FREEDOM FOR LOLA GUTIERREZ AND OTHER PREY

MONDAY 28 IN NOVEMBER STRIKE IN THE TELEMARKETING SECTOR

The time has come. This Monday 28 in November there is a call for a strike 24 hours in all state workplaces by all unions. This day we will stop telemarketing to give a message both to the employers of the sector and to all citizens:

Telemarketing workers deserve respect, we deserve decent working conditions and we are going to make ourselves heard. You can watch the video we recorded in Brussels the other day 15 to spread the word about the strike here:
https://youtu.be/wOjVDFv9g8c

Stay tuned to social media during the strike day next Monday 28 November. We are going to launch a campaign in which we hope to have the same impact as in the past 6 October. It is not enough just to support the strike, that's why we ask you to make a little extra effort to spread the word about our struggle.

We are more than 100.000 people in telemarketing throughout Spain. Our twitter account to use the strike hastag is @cgttelem (here you will get all the information). Equally, in the Facebook compte of the Federal TelemarQUeting Sector of CGT (https://www.facebook.com/cgttelemarketing/) and you can share all our content with your contacts.

Also warn that on Monday there will be INFORMATION PICKETS from early in the morning at the work centers to INFORM the workers directly about the strike.
This strike is called on Monday to do as much damage as possible to the companies. We play a lot and we have to support her massively.

ANOTHER AGREEMENT IS POSSIBLE AND YOU HAVE A LOT TO SAY!!!.

Sexist violence: responsible aggressors, complicit society # 25N

 COMMUNICATIONS, Woman, machista violence
Nov 252016
 

30776011980_253d120eee_zHe 25 November is the International Day against Gender Violence. They are killing us, striking, violating, abusive, exploding… So far this year 2016, 74 men have murdered a 74 women, 2 nenes i 1 nen.

But these are not isolated facts, this is called patriarchy, and is sustained in silence, the laziness and passivity of many people as well as in the neglect of functions of the Institutions that, actively or passively, they carry reinforcing, for hundreds of years, the model of object women, women as possessions of their partners; is based on the exploitative model of the capitalist economy; in the sexist Church, homophobic and racist that does not evolve; in the judiciary granting shared custody imposed even on abusers; in the political class that remains on the sidelines of what is happening, engrossed in their own intrigues and interests.

He 25 of November we want to denounce that, Often, those who wield power and legislate, blame and blame women for existing structural unemployment, of wage differences, of the deficit in the public pension system, of the difference in rights, of the violations, of ill-treatment… they are the ones who act directly or indirectly to prevent our emancipation and empowerment as free women.

We women demand of society and fight for a full model of co-education, for a culture of gender freedom; WE DENOUNCE the lack of ethics of rapists who go so far as to describe assaults as “group sex” without any scruples; we denounce to the media that “inform” of these facts with a false neutrality, normalizing the violence we suffer; we ask the Administration to monitor compliance with its own laws in favor of equality.

We women are fed up with being required to do all the work to report it, solve and end sexist violence. We carry more than 100 years empowered and doing so. That needs to change, when the aggressors will be required to stop killing us?, when the political class will be required to abandon its patriarchal conceptions in what it legislates and approves budget items against violence ?, for when our demand for support for women victims of gender-based violence and feminist training in gender-based violence?, when all the aggressors will be unmasked?, when it will be pointed out to human traffickers and sexual exploitation?

Women want to live in peace, with joy, at large, sense love, without god, without abuse.

We end violence against women for being so!

Against sexist violence, responses of mutual support and anarcho-feminist self-defense.

cgt-sector-socialCONCENTRATION IN THE ROBERT PALACE (Passeig de Gracia 107) THURSDAY 24 FROM NOVEMBER to 9 IN THE MORNING

In defense of a public and quality service for children at risk of social exclusion

No to the decrease of € 528,000 by the Generalitat

This rally is called in defense of a public and quality service for families at risk of social exclusion. The Generalitat intends to reduce the budget item currently allocated by € 472,000 for each “Children’s Home” and which would become 424.000 Euros, which means a total drop of 48.000 Euros to each house, and a total budget cut of 528.000 Euros, which will cause a decrease in the minors taken care of and of the workers in each center, when it is a service that in some homes there is a waiting list.

The main objective of the service is to give families the necessary support to prevent the separation of children and / or the possibility of the return home of institutionalized minors..

If some money is well spent, these are the ones dedicated to prevention, and more so if it is for minors among 3 i 18 years and their families, than for different socio-economic and / or family reasons, they are overwhelmed by situations that require specialized intervention.

The "Children's Homes" project, is managed by FASI (Social Action and Childhood Foundation), a non-profit entity, whose financial means come from the General Directorate of Child and Adolescent Care (DGAIA), body that monitors and evaluates the project and has recently announced the budget cut. This cut, will be executed by the private entity FASI, with which it will entail a deep restructuring of the service.

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.

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.

The TSJC recognizes Carpal Tunnel Syndrome as an Occupational Disease

 Prevention of occupational hazards, Occupational health
Nov 172016
 

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
