ELA highlights the “practically total” follow-up of the strike at the Bilbao Red Cross Hospital

ELA has highlighted that the follow-up to the strike that it has called since last Tuesday and until this Thursday in the Bilbao Red Cross Hospital is being “practically total” and has warned that, as long as the company does not present “an offer that adjusts to the required content” for the staff, the mobilizations will continue.

In a statement on this third day of the strike, ELA has assessed the support for the call as “practically total”, despite the fact that “the company is investing all its efforts in impose minimum services broader than those decreed by the Basque Government”.

Thus, he has denounced that they have established “more surgical interventions of those initially programmed and more cleaning staff“.

The union has criticized that, last Friday, the management presented a new proposal that “did not guarantee the recovery of the purchasing powernot even 35 hour day that some categories already enjoy, and that, in addition, contained cuts regarding the current agreement”.

As he pointed out, the staff of the Red Cross Hospital “have taken to the streets these days to make it clear that They are not going to accept cuts of any kind, so that the day is 1592 hours per year for all staff and to claim salary increases that allow them to recover what they have lost in recent years.

Likewise, he has warned that, as long as the company does not present “an offer that adjusts to the contents demanded” by the workforce, the workers “will continue with the mobilizations.”
