The union conflict with Sunca continues without a solution
This meeting takes place after another trade union conflict with the Single National Union of Construction and Annexes (Sunca) in Maldonado, where Mieres considered that the workers’ strike was “an abuse” and even talked about “union booty”.
Faced with this situation, the Sunca president, Daniel Diverio, He maintained to Radio Carve that the hierarch “contributes little” to solve the problem. “The average workload for construction workers is 7 or 8 months of work per year, which lowers the salary a lot”, explained Diverio about the situation of the sector.
On the reality of workers, he raised the importance of contacts and noted that “there are some who enter public or private works that enter because they have a card from a mayor or mayor, while others cannot enter.
