The Navantia operators at the Ferrol shipyard have decided in a meeting held this Monday to start a four-day strike until next Thursday, after the “threats” received by the management after having decided to paralyze the steel works of the new F-110 frigates faced with the impossibility of closing an agreement through the collective agreement.
The president of the works council, Carlos Díaz, has stated that last week they approved the referendum, “they boycotted all steel work”, and that, for this reason, the management sent them a letter to the works council and the union sections “saying that they were illegal actions and that they were going to take appropriate legal measures,” he explained.
In this context, they called a general assembly for this Monday to analyze the situation, also taking into account that this week, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, “they are going to try to close the negotiation According to Díaz,
In this assembly they proposed going on strike until next Thursday inclusive, with the workers already leaving the shipyard at the end of the assembly. Furthermore, for next Friday it has been announced that they have already called a general meeting at 10:00 a.m.in which they will assess what to do from there.
