The bureaucracy agrees with Rocca only changes in the shifts.
Enough! It's the lives of the metalworkers! Get Brunelli out of the UOM!
Let's take into our own hands the resolution of this terrible pandemic that is plaguing us!
Resolute sector assemblies! General assembly now, so we decide what to do!
General strike now in Siderar and in all the companies of the Techint group with 100% of our salary guaranteed!
Hand in hand with the government of “Mauricio” Fernández and his “exception plan”, Techint, through its managers, quickly came out to say that Siderar could not be stopped because “...it is part of the production of essential inputs for the food, personal hygiene and cleaning industries...”. The shameless and cynicism of the bosses has no limits! Only 7% of the tinplate destined for the food sector is produced in Siderar, and on the other hand what they hide is that almost the entire last year... this sector, along with rolling, was stopped! Essential production line? Don't lie anymore! Scoundrels! The bulk of the production that is coming out now is slabs for Mexico!
In the face of such a lie from the bosses, a huge indignation and anger began to spread throughout all the sectors of the plant and in large parts of the city as well, which quickly caused the managers, through their magazine “Gente de acero” (steel people), to issue another statement: that the plant cannot be stopped because of “...having continuous processes whose interruption implies structural damage to the production lines”... And to try to calm the anger of the metalworkers, their families and the city they explained that in their other plants like Ensenada, Haedo, Canning, Florencio Varela etc., they already “stopped the production”, and that in Siderar San Nicolás they had already taken their “employees” to “minimum attendance in some areas” Liars! Scoundrels! The only “staff leave” was because the bosses dismissed 40 workers from Lobreráz a few days ago! Cynics!
In Siderar Ensenada those who stopped the plant were the workers holding a general assembly and forcing the bureaucracy to abide by their decision and against the bosses!
In Siderar Florencio Varela these slaveowners have been holding the workers with “minimum attendance” for months. They have them suspended in rotation, collecting 70% of their already miserable salaries, and they don't even want to pay them the prize! The plant was practically stopped!
In Campana, Rocca & Co. they have the plant in operation, having hundreds of workers suspended and forcing the workers who try to get the licenses for high-risk groups, dozens of them, to go to work anyway?
How can seamless pipes be “essential production”, when Vaca Muerta (the largest oil field) is stopped? Cynical exploiters! They risk workers’ lives to sell pipes to America and fill themselves with money!
Moreover, in Tenaris-Dalmine, in Italy, since the pandemic began there with thousands and thousands of deaths, these murderous bosses have refused to stop the plant... It was the workers, in assembly, who stopped it and forced them to have it closed temporarily!
This is the bosses of the Techint group, of Rocca and Company, the bosses of the Vatican and its imperialist banks. This fascist boss, business partner and official of Mussolini's government in the 1930s, where they killed too many workers.
This is the “star” business group of Peronism and of all the political parties of the bosses, the one that began to make a great fortune with Peron, the one that in the genocidal military dictatorship of Videla made an enormous fortune with large contracts with the State, the one that put its plants, like Siderca - Campana, in place for the AAA of Isabel Perón and Lopez Rega and later the genocidal military to set up clandestine detention centers to kidnap, torture and kill the workers who tried to fight for their rights. This is Rocca, Menem's friend, who got SOMISA for peanuts, leaving more than 7,000 workers and their families in the streets, with the fundamental help of the UOM's Brunelli union bureaucracy, who sold the workers out. Rocca is the friend of the Kirchners and Maduro, who paid him for SIDOR three times its value in Venezuela.
This enslaver and murderer today is the “spoiled child” of the government of “Mauricio” Fernández. All the “exceptions” to the quarantine and all the “fiscal aid” that the government decreed are fundamentally to take care of Rocca and all the other businessmen's earnings.
Now this murderous boss, with his bosses, is going to implement the modality of reducing the percentage of workers in the plant to 50%, putting together two shifts per week, making them work 12 hours a week and the other shifts come in the following week. Scoundrels! No matter what, they want the workers to produce for them, putting our lives at risk. The same managers and bosses have long since been quarantined because all the offices are now closed!
The union bureaucracy of Brunelli the boss was at the meeting where this was defined. As it could not be otherwise, they accepted these measures. How could Brunelli not accept it if he owns contracting companies!
Scoundrels! They don't put their lives at risk! Brunelli never steps on the factory, neither do the managers. Until recently, those of the Internal Commission were dedicated to having coffee with the bosses. Many delegates began to take holidays. In the hands of the employers and the UOM of Brunelli we risked our lives!
The anger of the workers is growing every day. In some informative meetings the delegates tell the workers that the changes in the schedules and the shifts is good and that “this is enough”. When the worker complain that this is not enough and that everything should be stopped, the response of the Internal Commissions and delegates who are the pimps of Brunelli is that if we stop everything, Rocca will dismiss us, scaring them. They sold us out! Enough! Our lives and those of our families are at stake!
Let's take into our own hands the resolution of this terrible pandemic that's plaguing us! If we leave this in the hands of the bosses and the bureaucracy, we'll be killed by the coronavirus. Assemblies by sector to disregard and disrespect the “shift plan” of the bosses and the bureaucracy! A chance for us to decide what to do with our lives! General strike now in Siderar and in all the companies of the Techint group! All workers to our homes for the duration of the quarantine with 100% of the wages guaranteed by the bosses!
Get out the boss of the UOM! Bruneli, go with Rocca to the UIA! You're from there!
