During the delivery of the Covid balance sheet this morning from La Moneda, the Undersecretary for Crime Prevention, Katherine Martorell, announced new measures regarding the operation of essential companies. This, said the Minister of Health, Enrique Paris, after they detected on some occasions the sale of unique collective permits.
“Starting this next Monday, November 9, at 5:00 in the morning, to all those essential companies that have unique collective permits – not those that can operate with a credential – They will be required in the audit to carry their employment contract“Said Undersecretary Martorell.
This, he indicated, is announced a week in advance “so they can prepare.”
So, “All workers of essential companies, regardless of whether they are within curfew hours or during daytime hours, must always carry their employment contract because that will be controlled together with their identity card and their unique collective permit ”.
This new measure “is very important,” said Minister Paris, stating that the measure was taken after detecting the sale of these permits on some occasions.

“Therefore we are going to get more strict,” he added.
Along these lines, Martorell indicated that “what we have seen, unfortunately, is that many people carry the single collective permit, but that single collective permission when uploaded to the website does not always establish the employment relationship between the person and the essential industry or company who is requesting it ”.
Given this, he indicated, they made a pilot plan in the Magallanes Region where it was required to carry the contract in addition to the permit and it was very successful.
“Indeed, the number of people and mobilization in the region dropped a lot, and of course we can also see that this led to a significant improvement in the numbers “, he concluded.
In addition to these measures, the undersecretary announced a change in the curfew schedule, which will now apply from 00:00 to 5:00, starting this Thursday. This, except for Puerto Montt and communes of Magallanes, places where the measure will work from 8:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. due to the increase in coronavirus cases.
