The Union of Professionals of Sidor, formed by workers of the conduction list, traveled the past week to Caracas to set out its situation in the company before the holder of the Ministry of the Popular Power for the Work, Robert Hernandez, and although this one could not take care of them are in the hope of an answer of the ministry, that must clarify if the hierarchic resource interposed by the steel mill wears down its possibilities of forcing to negotiate a right collective hiring.

Pedro Velasquez, Secretary General of the union, said that the first contact with the minister was in the congress of workers the past realised 17 of January in Manoa. There this one was committed in taking care of them and for that reason they went until Caracas to set out its problems.

In view of which Hernandez had another commitment was taken care of by a civil servant, whom it corroborated that of the legal part the union is in favor legal, that is to say that the company would not have to offer too much resistance to grant the benefits to him that they demand for 1,400 workers.

Nevertheless, the minister has the last word and must be he who pronounces himself on the matter.

On the other hand, the workers affirm that their present conditions are worse than those than they had with the transnational one and from which they have seen themselves in the necessity to organize itself.

Dennys Escalona, secretary of finances, commented that also they took part in the National Assembly where they were taken care of by the permanent commission of social development, that also gave the reason them to its expositions.

Another one of the aspects that worry to the professionals is the flight of talents and the difficulty to obtain personnel with this situation. “People are taking Ternium to it with good contracts, because although she is not created, we are worse than with the transnational one because the benefits of the hiring that are extensive no longer we received them”, she indicated a worker.
