– “There is not a single article in this reform that is in favor of the worker. There are more than 200 articles and there is not one that favors a worker. It is a law that in the name of modernization wants to return us to the 19th century. It is not to generate employment or to improve conditions, but to attack historical achievements. That is why there is so much rejection.”
– “If you have an accident or an illness and they consider that it is your responsibility, they are going to deduct 50% or 25% of your salary. It is totally delusional to say that you cannot get sick without being deducted. We are talking about a flu, a bicycle accident or playing soccer. It is an elementary health problem and they want to turn it into a salary penalty.”
– “That is, you get sick and on top of that they deduct your salary. That is very serious because it forces many workers to go to work sick. And that has not only individual but also collective consequences.”
– “This law is not to generate registered work or to combat black labor. It is a reward for evaders, for those who had unregistered workers. Instead of strengthening rights, it weakens them. And meanwhile, the worker is left more unprotected against illness and dismissal.”
