There was no agreement in the joint meeting of the railway unions with the Ministry of Labor. There will be a fourth intermission until Tuesday of next week. They were offered a 12% salary increase in an attempt to restore salaries for the month of January, but the union representatives considered it insufficient.
At 10:30 the meeting began between the national officials and those who represented the four unions - La Fraternidad (locomotive drivers); Railway Union (groups train guards); Argentine Railway Signalers and APDFA, of the hierarchical staff - which lasted for more than two hours, in the midst of a strike ordered by one of the unions, La Fraternidad, which left more than 1 million passengers without short and medium distance services. in all the country.
It was the third meeting this year between the parties. Sergio Sasia, from the Railway Union, said after the meeting: “We had agreed that we were going to discuss after knowing the January CPI, which was higher than 20%. We are optimistic and hope they get close to that figure. “We are going to resume the dialogue next week.”
Omar Maturano, in charge of running La Fraternidad since 1994, was harsher: “People are clearly told the situation we are experiencing. Today we were the spearhead. Today we opposed the policy of this government. We surely harm them. But what is the way out? This is the measure of strength that we can do.”
“ Let's hope that this government aligns, that it aligns the ducks a little and we have a solution to all the problems we have ,” he added.
Then, in line with what the union member had already been saying for several days, he maintained that "we hope that the CGT begins to lead the fight and that this does not get out of hand, that each union does not begin to take forceful measures, where we are going to We will only be harmed. Let's hope that our beloved CGT launches a plan of struggle and faces the protests of all the unions."
