Workers of the cleaning service of the Autonomous Community have concentrated today in front of the Ministry of Finance and the San Esteban Palace to claim "respect" for the workforce and the recovery of working conditions that the regional government suppressed in 2013 as a result of the economic crisis, and that meant the dismissal of 180 people.
The assistants, mostly women, some dressed in their work uniforms, have carried banners in which they could read "We are not the kellys of López Miras";
"With the cleaning is not played, people do not negotiate" or "Enough, we are not invisible."
Antonio Alcaraz, president of the company committee of the administrative batch of the service, explained that the regional government decided six years ago to cut the service, which led to "an increase in workload, job insecurity, discrimination and stress , and a reduction of the salary "that is maintained today in spite of the announcements related to the improvement of the situation on the part of the murcian leaders.
"Recovering what they took from us is justice," said Alcaraz, who has also warned that the decline in the number of employees has not gone hand in hand with a reduction in workload because the Autonomous Community is bound by regulations 1989 to comply with "a minimum level of hygiene and health" in the facilities of its ownership.
In the end, "who pays is the worker, the workforce", formed 98 percent by women, while "companies submit bids at the lowest cost and the Administration exonerate them from obligations," he added.
Asked about what he would say to the president of the region, Fernando López Miras, Alcaraz has indicated that he would ask for "common sense" and "comply with the agreements" because the workers "have already sacrificed enough and it is time for us to return what is ours. "
"It's a matter of dignity, health and struggle against this indecency," he concluded.
