Valladolid (EFE).- The unions CCOO, UGT and CSIF have called off this Tuesday the day of strike in Health called for tomorrow in Castilla y León, after reaching a labor pre-agreement “in extremis” with the Ministry of Health, which will be ratified tomorrow with the head of this department, Alejandro Vázquez (PP).
This was confirmed this Tuesday by those responsible for this CCOO negotiation, Ana Rosa Arribas; from UGT, Carlos Arenas; and from CSIF, Enrique Vega, at the end of the meeting held with representatives of the Ministry for almost four hours.
These union representatives have highlighted the progress achieved in terms of Primary Care, remuneration and workforce structure, although they have been referred to the agreement monitoring commissions to guarantee compliance with the commitments of the regional Administration and thus avoid the strike in Health.
The agreements that have avoided the strike in Health
Specifically, the pre-agreement document to which EFE has had access provides for the preparation of a study on reordering the remuneration of statutory personnel to adapt salaries to the remuneration system as provided for in Law 2/2007, with reference to the first semester of 2024 to negotiate its detail at the Sector Table.
In addition, the text implies an agreement on remuneration for the attendants of the Primary Care Emergency Services (SUAP) that will be in force as of January 1, 2024, in addition to other agreements on the employment exchange and a Plan of Human Resources that provides the system with “modern and updated templates, in accordance with the current and future needs of the system in the short and medium term”.
The document refers to a new meeting of working groups to advance in the open and permanent transfer competitions in the categories in which there are permanent statutory personnel, to comply with the regulations for the provision of places and the adaptation of templates in the category of maintenance personnel to give them stability, among other agreements.
The unions: satisfied
Arrias (CCOO) has acknowledged that it leaves the meeting “satisfied with the agreement”, for which it has placed an improvement in the proposal for Primary Care as a “red line”, which will be detailed tomorrow after the final document is signed by the counselor.
For his part, Arenas has maintained that it has been an agreement “quite difficult to achieve”, since there have been some points that have remained “in the dark” and have not achieved all the objectives that the unions had set.
In the case of the CSIF representative, Enrique Vega, he indicated that the points on which there has been progress were “basic” to stop the strike call that had been raised by the three unions for tomorrow.
Yesterday, the UGT, CCOO and CSIF agreed to maintain the general strike in the Health of Castilla y León for tomorrow, Wednesday, May 17, if the Ministry does not sign what it itself agreed with the unions on May 8, and which served to call off the strike of the 10th.
The Ministry had already regulated the minimum services
The Ministry considered that what was agreed on May 8 was a proposal and not a document as such, so today a new document has been sent to them.
The agreement to call off the strike day comes after today the Ministry of Health of Castilla y León had regulated the minimum services for tomorrow.
The circumstance is that this strike call did not have the support of the two majority unions between medical professionals (CESM) and nursing professionals (Satse), which in previous weeks had negotiated separately to close specific agreements for both professional groups.EFE
