These people so badly fed picture are the representatives of English workers. Maybe you're not even syndicated and think that these men did not represent. Undeceive, says the Constitution and no more to say.
For years, these gentlemen have made sure to go off, little by little, each and every one of the truly assertive labor movement, starting from their own ranks. Since living subsidies (not to be confused with the trade union base, please) and do not really need the workers, have been acting with slogans like: "It is better to work a little worse for many that work better for some" , or other similar names that our parents, the last generation that could enjoy (for a short time, these self) of a decent working time, had to listen to their regret.
These are the people that brought workers where they are now, the world of the ETT, the five-minute contracts are poorly paid and without social security. Do not talk about what the law says, I talk about what happens in reality.
surprised that anyone can ignore the responsibility of employers. Well, it's true that (and, please, we are generalizing) the same way that a rose by any other name would still retained its heady aroma, a businessman named speculator would smell a. ...
Mmm ... my fault for starting metaphors with pickup lines. Follow.
Anyway, I think in this country there is no corporate culture, at least beyond the level of self-employed and small industries, and most of our large employers what they want not to create a business environment, but take the money and run. In that context, I do not care if workers are well or poorly formed, or if the company shall continue over time, or whether they are creating something or not. Benefits only, thanks. Strangely, this approach perhaps valid for them, has been passed on to younger (does any complex derived from an unhappy childhood?), Which explains perhaps the ruin of many small empresas, que se han convertido en "picadoras" de trabajadores similares a las multinacionales, lo que para mí no tiene sentido, la verdad. Pero lo mires como lo mires, acierten o se equivoquen, lo que hacen los empresarios es defender sus intereses, no los intereses de los trabajadores. Son el "enemigo", por el amor de Dios. Sería bonito que fueran alemanes, pero semos todos españoles.
Con lo que volvemos a los sindicatos.
Después de trabajar cuidadosamente durante décadas para desactivar el movimiento obrero (ayudados gentilmente por los gobiernos de turno, que éstos también van a lo suyo, y lo suyo es coger poltrona y a otra cosa), de conseguir que la mayoría de los jóvenes y not so young have short-term arduous work and poorly paid, now seek to mobilize (point, yes, we will not hurt us) to defend working conditions that most do not apply to them, unfortunately for everyone. It is not surprising that most workers do not feel concerned on this issue, really.
Given that employers and unions are no longer able to reach an agreement, and therefore it was impossible to wash their hands in this matter as all governments have done for decades, now aims to reform our the labor market, to get what they always say: end the instability.
only thing so far has transcended the issue of reform is the reduction of compensation for unfair dismissal and a mild relaxation (translation: it will now be easier for the company) in the objective dismissal for economic reasons, it is something that has existed for nearly fifteen years, although some commentators seem to have discovered it now. Apparently, as I have never worked. For others, I mean. Has little to do with "a thorough reform of the labor structure, but strangely seems to be nothing more, and these are precisely the reasons invoked by the unions for a general strike.
Not is suspiciously similar to the last time? That is, the government (in that case, the good-natured Aznar) made similar changes, plus others that did not receive much publicity, it mounted a general strike, the government appeared to be defeated and turned back with the compensation .. .. but others being: part-time contracts in an even more draconian, ETTs, and general worsening of working conditions for everyone. Although the severance pay was not touched, eye.
So, friend, worker, struggling to keep your severance pay ... but get closer to your union (which people still valid, if you're lucky) to see this time what others, not going to be once again be making noise with the accessory for you not noticing the main thing.
And the government (if anyone reading has come up here and go out there to someone in the government saying so, please) just remember that it is all very well to import the model Austrian and Danish and German model, but that while no amount also to Austrian companies, Danes and Germans will be hard to find here do not lap. Maybe it's time to move from that and build a English model that captures our lovely "essence" ... and which is not easy to corrupt.
If there are what have TAR, has no national government entoavía dare. Much talk, long talk, but aluego ...
Watch your backs, folks. If you are going to fuck, at least they do looking at their eyes.
