Dragados presents an ERTE for infrastructure maintenance workers in Madrid | Companies

Dragados has presented an ERTE for the workers of the maintenance service of public roads and infrastructures in Madrid, as reported by the UGT in a statement.

Last Wednesday, April 29, the company notified the legal representatives of the workers of the start of a procedure to suspend contracts for productive and organizational causes related to the coronavirus, for 192 workers of the 223 that make up the workforce, of the 3 lots of which the contract of the aforementioned company with the Madrid City Council is composed, for the maintenance of public roads and infrastructures. The contract represents a cost of more than 260 million euros for the City Council.

From UGT they have expressed their “most forceful rejection of this file”, since they understand “that there are no objective causes related to the coronavirus that justify it” as well as because they consider that it is intended “to make fraudulent use for the benefit of the company and harm of the workers, of the measures adopted by the Government to maintain employment in the face of the difficult situation it has generated. ” Therefore, they have demanded the “immediate” withdrawal of this file.

UGT has denounced the “nonsense” of this ERTE, since it is intended to “send workers to unemployment, while on the other hand, overtime and subcontracting part of the works that make up the contract have been carried out.”
