The two union organizations in question are the Sindicato de Trabajadores de la Industria Revolutionary Gold, Diamond, Cuaolín, Quartz, Related and Allied (Sintriodiccs) from the Venezuelan company Rusoro Mining, and the Single Trade Union of Workers of Graphite Orinoco (Suntragrafito).

When both projects introduced to the inspectorate were ordered to remedy some of the same points (seven in the case of Sintriodiccs) and 5 in the Suntragrafito), which played each other in time, but then the inspector, Luisa Castro, are inhibited from the register, arguing that resulted reforming the entire project.

Exaviel Alexander, general secretary of the union miner, Castro described the action as an anti-union practices, as the article 425 of the Labour Act dictates that after the correction, the officer must continue the process without inhibited the case.

Edgar Palomo, secretary of organization Suntragrafito stated that the decision of the inspector is a refusal to allow defend the rights of workers covered by those unions.

Another organization that attitudes irregular denounced by the inspectorate was Sutrakoppern who are waiting for the discussion of the collective contract, without which this has been able to start, even after they took the complaint to the Ministry of Labour and the Ombudsman's Office in Caracas.
