Ecology Action Centre calls for immediate implementation of Coastal Protection Act | SaltWireSANTIAGO - Workers for Chile's Codelco will not rule out a strike if the state-owned copper company enacts job cuts to counteract a slump in production, which has reached its lowest point in a quarter century, the head of the company's union association said.
"We have said in every tone that today we have an extremely stressed crew," Pantoja said, adding that the number of workers has dropped from 19,000 in 2015 to 12,000."We cannot allow staff adjustments, we can't afford anymore." Pantoja also complained that the number of contractors has ballooned to 60,000, with 23,000 involved in production, which he says is in violation of previous agreements.
One of the proposals includes returning maintenance tasks from contractors to employees, which Pantoja says is one of the main bottlenecks for current operations.
