Valladolid (EFE) .
It will be at the union rallies scheduled for the morning of 8 M where the unions protest in front of the Employment Council, in the hands of Vox, for the unfulfilled labor agreements, while in the joint demonstration in the afternoon they will also cry out against the increased inequalities in this year, both unions explained this Tuesday at a press conference.
“In ten months the agreements have been broken, labor rights, a lot of lines have been eliminated to help women,” denounced the general secretary of the CCOO in Castilla y León, Vicente Andrés, who lamented that the “extreme right” is leading the Community to a process of “involution” with “funds that are not spent and money that is returned to the State in equality policies”.
In this sense, the CCOO leader has accused Vox of “defaming” the unions and has assured that what Santiago Abascal’s formation wants is to “create a new order” where women “again have to ask their husbands for permission for everything and they have to stay at home.”
“They are soldiers, they don’t paint anything here. It is impossible to move forward like this ”, Andrés lamented, asked if he believes that some progress could be made in the labor negotiation with the Board and the Ministry of Industry, Employment and Commerce.
breaches
In this way, the unions have prepared a document with ten points with the policies eliminated by the Ministry of Employment, among which are measures such as hiring women victims of gender violence, labor insertion programs for immigrants, the priority of women in some aid to the countryside or the promotion of equality plans in companies.
Likewise, they have denounced that there has been a general decrease in labor inspections linked to gender equality with decreases such as verification of the existence of equality measures and plans, whose inspections have gone from 287 to 100 in a year or the related to wage discrimination, from 105 to 55.
For her part, the CCOO Secretary for Women and Equality, Yolanda Martín, has stated that the measures announced and undertaken this year by the PP-Vox government are “another form of violence against women”, an “intolerable institutional violence and inadmissible, which is also unheard of and represents a terrible delay”.
Something that is due, as he has assured, to the “reactionary and far-right politics of the Junta de Castilla y León”, with announcements such as the controversial protocol for pregnant women, which has not finally been implemented.
Finally, asked about the effects of the so-called law of only yes is yes in this 8M, the general secretary of UGT in the Community, Faustino Temprano, has expressed that it is “unfortunate” that 8M is reached “with a division within the feminist movement”, so that he has called for a “union”, since “everyone in the background defends the same policies for women and men”, he has added.
