The union Comisiones Obreras in Las Palmas has denounced that councilor Vicente Tito Herrera is a member of the works council of the waste collection and cleaning service of the municipality of which he is a councilor, that is, San Bartolomé de Tirajana. What there is is a war between the peninsular central CC.OO and the Canarian union SOC, which has the entire works council under control.
CC.OO has cried foul and called it "unheard of" that "Herrera, a service worker, is still a member of the committee despite his forced leave, which undermines the representativeness of the workers." CC.OO warns that it will challenge and prosecute any agreement or agreement adopted behind the staff's back that it believes undermines their rights.
The fact is that CC.OO has accused the union of companies that provides the service and of which Lopesan is a part and FCC is persecuting workers for questioning the service model and labor relations. And, the person who has to defend these workers is a councilor in the government group with forced leave, generating "numerous irregularities in the UTE (made up of FCC, Bitumex and Lopesan) that entail a systematic attack against the Organic Law of Freedom of Association." 220 workers in the orbit of the SOC and Base Unionists.
