The company will retake the footpath of the yield, according to its workers

The conflict in CVG Minerven finished. The employees yesterday initiated their workings after which the recovery committee and I reimpel, designated by the minister of Basic Industries and Mining (Mibam) days back, would decide with the unions new actions to lead back to the company by the yield.

Carlos Rodriguez, president of the Union of Professionals (Simpro), informed that the understanding arrived, although there is money no to pay the labor vindications that they demanded. He indicated that the president of the auriferous one has not been dismissed.

“First that we obtained when working with the commission he is that Minerven does not have half nor to pay, for that reason it remembered sell 12 kilos of gold that are fused to pay to the daily and monthly list their week and fortnight each. Other 23 kilos of gold that are in calcination and must be fused will sell to pay the 50 percent of the retroactive one that is owed to the monthly list”.

The second point established between the commission and the unions was to restore a called cronogram “plan of the 130 kilos of gold”, that will look for the form that in 30 days 130 kilos of gold take place to go gradually raising the production level.

Also they established tables of work in the maintenance areas, provision and mine, that will identify the requirements so that the employees manage the first goal to elevate the production of 80 kilos of metal monthly, to 130.

With these plans the Ministry of Basic Industries and Mining will give to a contribution or loan to the miner to settle the liabilities that owe their workers, with the guarantee of which the production follows in ascent until it is located in the 300 or 400 kilos of gold to the month that came back obtaining years.

Rodriguez added who enters the agreements settled down a shouting by management that is in charge to watch the recovery process and I reimpel of the mining plant.

“The workers we are going to demonstrate that if gives the conditions us we can take this company to which it was before. We are going to demonstrate that the management of Luis Herrera is bad, and that we can follow ahead. With this commission there are shortage many things and the assumed salary these agreements is a vote of confidence to the minister, because we followed displeasures with Luis Herrera, but we want to advance”.

Between the aspects of the act raised with the committee of recovery of the Mibam one settled down that there will be no retaliation against the working-class, and more than two weeks of unemployment they will be assumed by the company.

“We have prices of gold that allow to leave ahead and that we will do. The board of directors must consult everything with the commission and that is an advance, so only we need to begin, and we are optimistic. Yes we can put to this company in a good level of production”, said Rodriguez.
