For tomorrow, Thursday from 09:30 hours, the Finance Commission of the Chamber of Deputies was summoned to vote in general and in particular on the 2021 salary readjustment for the public sector.
During today’s session, the parliamentary instance listened to the Minister of Finance Ignacio Briones, who defended the Government’s proposal for a readjustment of 0.8% for salaries above $ 1.5 million and 2.7% for salaries below 750 thousand pesos.
The proposal – entered without agreement with the unions – is rejected by the Public Sector Board, made up of 16 organizations of fiscal employees coordinated by the Central Unitary of Workers (CUT), which obtained the support of opposition parliamentarians.
Deputy Gabriel Silber (DC) criticized the “stubbornness” and the government’s unwillingness to talk and understand the needs of public officials, especially those on the first line of health. For his part, the deputy PPD Rodrigo González, indicated that this deal “is nothing less than the payment of Chile.”
One of the objectives of public workers is to recover their historically acquired rights, such as the negotiation term bonus and the payment of the entire vacation bonus.
“It is the first time in history that a government has not known the payment of the end of conflict bonus; this was achieved with the struggle and commitment of thousands of workers and we will not admit that it is now taken away from us,” declared Patricia Valderas, president of the National Fenats.
In the middle of the negotiation, health organizations such as Fenats and Confusam are in mobilization, while in Valparaíso the Public Sector Roundtable was held demanding that the workers not pay the costs of the crisis.
