Government raises readjustment offer for public sector

In a new meeting between the Treasury and the 16 organizations that make up the public sector table, the government raised its offer from 2.5% to 2.6% nominal for revenues of up to $ 1,500,000 and opened to deliver a 0.8% increase for revenues over that amount.

It should be remembered that the initial proposal of the Executive was 2.3%, while that of the workers has remained at 4% for those who have incomes of up to $ 3 million and 3% for income over that amount.

Through a statement, the public sector table said that the different floors of the negotiation have been discussed regarding the readjustment in terms of the figure and sections, including the vacation bonus, cut lines, minimum wages, lower income bonus and bonus term of negotiation. Although they assure that “they understand the will of the government”, it is still “a considerable distance from what is required in the negotiation document, as benefits of public officials, it should be added that the executive in the afternoon stated that there is the will to approach the meeting point ”.

In this context they affirm that “one of the requests insistently requested by public employees is that purchasing power not be lost, considering that the accumulated CPI from November to November is the equivalent of 2.7%. Thus, the public sector table was waiting for the government’s response.

The meetings continue tomorrow.
