19,000 Bureaucrats Suspend Work (El Vigia, 10/2/12 by Gerardo Sanchez)
Ensenada, BC – In protest against Governor Jose Guadalupe Osuna Millan, 19,000 union bureaucrats suspended activities yesterday in the five Baja California municipalities. The work stoppage began at 8 AM and ended at 3 PM.
Ricardo Medina Fierro, Union General Secretary, said that they will continue these actions until the Governor removes the general work conditions unilaterally filed with labor authorities.
At the moment, said Medina Fierro, the discussion focuses on the percentage of a salary increase, but the Governor also intends to implement working conditions which represent setbacks for workers.
It was reported Union legal advisers organized the strike which could be repeated in coming days. The trade union leader said Osuna Millan has completely stopped dialogue, and despite the provision, the General Secretaries of the various sections have not resumed talks.
He added that in addition to halted negotiations, Osuna Millan seeks to quell demonstrations with a display of police force, as used yesterday during the announcement of the Government's report. At the headquarters there were hundreds of State and Ministerial police preventing access to the protesters.
In the five boroughs the union workers are concentrated at State Government offices. There was agreement by leaders in premises where emergency services are required, that staff would not suspend work.
In Mexicali 8,000 union workers suspended activities, 7,000 in Tijuana, 2,300 in Ensenada, 950 in Tecate and 220 in Playa Rosarito. http://www.elvigia.net/noticia/suspenden-labores-19-mil-bur-cratas
