Popular wisdom says that you can’t put doors to the field, but labor inspection You have tried to be put toilets. It was denounced by the Union of Farmers and Livestocks of Castilla-La Mancha in a very graphic way: “these days are taking place inspections during the olive campaign in the province of Toledo. Although it may seem incredible, some of the reasons of sanction They are the absence of services to shit and piss in the field. “
The complaint, published Last week on your website and transferred to the Ministry of Agriculture, responds to the sanctioning files that received several farmers Toledo for not having toilet installed for workers in their agricultural farms.
“It happened in the Sagra area, the largest production of Olivar in Toledo. Two labor inspectors were presented and when there were no public toilets in the field, they were opened sanctioning files, which They can wear numerous fines of more than 2,000 euros, “he explains to 20 minutes Anastasio Yébenes, member of the agricultural union executive.
“They talk about environmental issues, but do you think it’s hygienic carry a chemical bath What is wiggling on all roads when you can be quietly outdoors in the field as a lifetime has been done? Besides, it is organic fertilizer! We do not contaminate anything. It is a nonsense, “he emphasizes.
And defends that if farmers had to put baths in the field, as if it were a music festival, the same standard should be applied In many other sectors in which it does not apply: “They are asking us for something so illogical that it has neither feet nor head. The law says that any workplace has to have bathrooms, and of course it must have them, but the problem is what do we understand by work center? If we apply That rule to Rajatabla, a traveler, a Patrol of the Civil Guard or the labor inspectors themselves who came to the field to open the files, would also have to wear a portable bath in the car in case they enter a necessity. “
“A punctual case caused by two inspectors”
Fortunately for those who could be sanctioned, the files have closed without consequences and there will be no fines. Yébenes emphasizes that his “mobilization” has made the Ministry of Agriculture give a touch to the work to throw the brake: “This has been a timely case caused by two labor inspectors They wanted to bring a norm to the extreme. Surely he would have lying with any resource before justice, but of course, you have to spend money on lawyers. ”
“We have mobilized a press release and transferring the matter to the Ministry. In the end it seems that Common sense has been imposed and paralyzedthey have informed us that the files will be filed. Farmers already have a thousand stories with the rise in costs, environmental regulations and Brussels bureaucracy to come with these, “he says.
The impact on social networks has also contributed page: “As has been such striking news, has caused a lot of pitorreo in the networks. Cachondeo has been widespread and is not for less. “In fact, videos recorded by some farmers who denounced what happened with a lot of emphasis have been viralized on Tiktok:
Anyway, Yébenes explains that many farmers usually have bathrooms in their agricultural farms, but normally installed “In warehouses or ships where the machinery is saved” And not in the middle of the field: “In the greenhouses of Almería they have bathrooms and it is logical because they are stable workplaces where the worker moves very little, but in a 50 -hectare olive grove by God! How do you do it? If a day you work in one hectare, then in another … Are you taking the toilet in one car from one place to another? Tell you how you have to do your needs. “
