Reducing the working day to 37.5 hours a week, at least on the next Tuesday, is pounced into the Council of Ministers. Thus, Ioland Diaz, the second vice -president and Minister of Labor, He reaches May 1 without his more controversial measurewho agreed with the UGT and CCOO trade unions, Processed and ready to discuss in the congress of deputies.
It should be noted that The portfolio led by Diaz announced last week that it would be approved for the transfer of debate to Congress on Tuesday, But from the National Disabling on Monday, whose consequences were expanded before on Tuesday in some areas of the country, he was postponed and did not get advice on Tuesday, to extraordinary yesterday.
Check I already arrived with some delay in the last TuesdaySince they have calculated from the Ministry of Labor that the reduction in the working day would have already reached the lower house by the end of February or early March, but it has not yet been approved even in parliament. One of those who is responsible for this delay was Carlos Bol, the Minister of Economics, Trade and Business, who from the very beginning indicated that this step would not take place until April or May and that it is more critical of the norm.
In addition, from the wide terms required during the final approval of the standard, it is estimated that, at least, the fall is not processed. Since he is approved in the council, Rules must go through a process that lasts an average of about five months In the case of bills (initiatives that begin with the government), and which can be halved if they urgently undertaken.
As if the government tries to accelerate its process as much as possible, as much as possible, The power that the popular party in the Senate can delay up to two months its implementationOr even more, if he decides to impose a veto, which implies his return to the congress of deputies – and this will force the executive director to have a wider majority.
To all this is joined that for months July and August are not scheduled for parliamentary sessions – But they can be convened – therefore, processing the reduction of the day will resume in September if they do not decide to convene an extraordinary character.
This new delay gives employers a new opportunity to try to convince the opposition parties to create Amendment to everyone So the bill that Iolanda Diaz should be changed.
