Demonstrators from the “Apoyo” Labor Confederation gathered to protest in front of parliament to express their dissatisfaction with the changes in the Labor Code, which allows to increase overtime from 150 to 300 hours a year, reported BGNES.
The new texts have already been approved on first reading in the plenary hall, and foresee an increase in the reporting period of the summary calculation of the working day, expanding the scope of one-day employment contracts and eliminating the obligation of employers to provide hot meals for night shifts. .
“What does this mean? Our 12-month work year should magically be 14 months. This means that our workday from 8 o’clock should turn into 9 o’clock. The whole world is going to cut down on work hours. We see how people who work in job security repeatedly explain the negative aspects of the so-called Burnout (extreme emotional exhaustion due to work – ed. note). It turns out that our deputies do not know what Burnout is, “Vanya Grigorova told the protesters.
He recalled the case from a few years ago, in which a midwife assaulted a newborn baby after another grueling 24-hour duty. Vanya Grigorova also gave an example with the frequent accident cases involving public transport drivers, for which the reasons are similar.
“We know the arguments – no workers! And why are there no workers? Because they don’t pay! Because a nurse has to work for 700 BGN a month. That is why today we hear everyone complaining that we have no doctors, no We have nurses, we don’t even have paramedics. Instead of trying to improve conditions in the country, we do the exact opposite, we make them worse. We make them worse by allowing a double increase in overtime, a double increase in the total calculation of working time “Grigorova added.
According to her, if the changes are finally approved at second reading in plenary, they will lead to an even greater “brain and muscle drain to Western Europe”. / BGNES
