After two consecutive postponements, the Chamber of Deputies will resume the debate tomorrow in commission of the projects presented by the dialogic opposition and for him officialdom for reform the union model. The Labor Legislation Commission will debate again from 12 noon on the 28 initiatives proposed by legislators from the UCR, PRO and La Libertad Avanza to modify Law 23,551 on Trade Union Associations and Law 14,250 on Collective Labor Agreements.
The president of the Labor Legislation commission, Martin Tetaz, had everything ready for the majority opinion to be signed on September 24 for a consensus text between the UCR, he PRO, Freedom Advances and the Civic Coalition. However, the day before the Government lowered the line that it was not yet the time to support this initiative so as not to hinder the link with the CGT, at a time when energy was focused on getting other parallel negotiations back on track. La Libertad Avanza and the PRO complied with the order and warned that they would not contribute to the quorum, so the call was meaningless.
So it was that Tetaz, reluctantly, ended up suspending and rescheduling the appointment not once, but twice to the Labor Legislation Commission. Sources close to the UCR economist confirmed to Noticias Argentinas that the call for this Tuesday was confirmed, although it would not be to rule.
Deputies: the proposals of the ruling party and allies to reform the union model
The projects propose end indefinite reelection of general secretaries, establish the participation of the minorities, arrange the clean sheet for union members, eliminate solidarity fees compulsive, establish a gender quota in the representative bodies and make the presentation of sworn asset declarations mandatory.
The project authors are, among others, Tetaz himself, Roxana Reyes (UCR); Monica Frade (CC); Luis Picat (UCR); Soledad Carrizo (UCR); Veronica Razzini (Pro); María Eugenia Vidal (PRO); Fernando Iglesias (PRO); Ricardo López Murphy (EF), Rodrigo de Loredo (UCR); Gerardo Huesen (LLA) and Gabriel Chumpitaz (PRO). The majority office that LLA and dialogue blocks will promote prohibits the mandatory discount of solidarity feesone of the points that unions most reject because it affects the collection of these union organizations.
The draft of that dispatch, to which Agencia Noticias Argentinas had access, states that “Contributions cannot be required or imposed on workers on a mandatory basis” and that any discount must have the “express authorization of the worker”, which may be revoked at any time through a telegram or any other reliable means of communication.
Another key point is that it eliminates the possibility of indefinite reelection, as currently exists, and provides for a single reelection. In this sense, it establishes that the “terms may not exceed four years, with the right to be re-elected for a new consecutive period of four years. At the end of this period, a time interval of one full period must elapse to be elected again,” duck.
It is also noted that must guarantee the representation of minorities in deliberative bodies and directors when they had obtained more than 25% of the valid votes cast by their members. In the draft dispatch to which said agency also accessed It is established that the D’Hont system will be applied to the deliberative bodieswhile to integrate the board of directors of the leadership the winner will have two thirds, and the first minority the remaining third.
It also establishes that in order to hold a driving position, one may not have civil or criminal inhibitions, nor a final criminal conviction, under the same conditions established in current legislation. In this context, it will be key whether the Clean Record law promoted by the ruling party and dialogue blocs will soon be approved, an initiative that establishes that a second-instance conviction disqualifies a person from being a candidate for an elective position.
Another point of the project is that it allows the worker’s free choice of social work, after having spent three months in it since the employment relationship began. Union for the Homeland (UP) and the left presented their own offices against these proposals considering that their objective is the destruction of unionism.
