Labor ministry orders mandatory conciliation in Córdoba, averting teachers' strike

English

Córdoba's Ministry of Labor has ordered mandatory conciliation for 10 business days, preventing a 72-hour teachers' strike called by the Unión de Educadores de la Provincia (UEPC). The union has complied with the measure. The talks address salary negotiations amid extreme national economic fragility, according to David Consalvi, secretary general of the governorship.

Córdoba's Ministry of Labor stepped in on Sunday by issuing mandatory conciliation, suspending a 72-hour teachers' strike announced by the UEPC for 10 business days.

The union complied with the order, averting classroom disruptions. David Consalvi, secretary general of the governorship, stated that "es una negociación salarial que se da en un contexto de una fragilidad económica nacional extrema".

UEPC's Cristalli voiced frustration over the timing: "Hubiésemos esperado que dejen hacer las medidas y después convoquen". He insisted that any new salary proposal must include "un aumento no inferior al 25% de recupero".

The action aims to foster dialogue between the provincial government and educators amid tensions over lagging wages.
