The proposal, agreed upon by the <strong>Ministry of Labour<\/strong> and the <strong>trade unions<\/strong>, includes the reduction of the working week to <strong>37.5 hours<\/strong>, a measure that has sparked <strong>widespread debate<\/strong> and <strong>opposition<\/strong> from <strong>employers&#8217; organisations<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_116400\" style=\"width: 790px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-116400\" class=\"size-full wp-image-116400\" src=\"https:\/\/mallorcaglobalmag.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Catalina-Cabrer.webp\" alt=\"Catalina Cabrer, Secretary of Labour, Employment and Social Dialogue of the Balearic Government\" width=\"780\" height=\"520\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-116400\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Catalina Cabrer, Secretary of Labour, Employment and Social Dialogue of the Balearic Government. Photo: CAIB.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&#8220;This Government <strong>does not agree<\/strong> with this preliminary bill. We call on the national Government to <strong>reconsider<\/strong> and bring this measure back to <strong>social dialogue<\/strong>. Working hours, as stated in the Workers&#8217; Statute, are subject to <strong>collective bargaining<\/strong>,&#8221; said the Secretary of Labour, Employment and Social Dialogue, Catalina Cabrer. &#8220;Its imposition will create a <strong>tension<\/strong> that will threaten the <strong>social harmony<\/strong>, which is the <em>sine qua non<\/em> condition for a region to develop a project, address its challenges, and carry out its planned tasks,&#8221; she added.<\/p>\n<h3>Territorial specificities<\/h3>\n<p>Cabrer explained that &#8220;currently, <strong>sectoral collective agreements<\/strong> of <strong>private companies<\/strong>, in <strong>100%<\/strong> of cases, set working weeks of <strong>40 hours<\/strong>. This means that <strong>employers and trade unions in our region<\/strong> are not agreeing to <strong>such reduced working hours<\/strong>. This must be taken into account. The project proposed by <strong>Minister Yolanda D\u00edaz<\/strong> has not reflected on the <strong>specificities of each region<\/strong>, and this is a concern for us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In this regard, the Secretary of Labour, Employment and Social Dialogue emphasised that &#8220;the Government of the Balearic Islands is based on <strong>dialogue<\/strong>, and this law does not reflect the dialogue we advocate in this community. Measures must be agreed with both employers and trade unions because <strong>both stakeholders are equally important<\/strong>.&#8221; According to Cabrer, the Balearic Islands\u2019 position as <strong>leaders in job creation<\/strong>, with an <strong>average of 570,000 contributors to Social Security<\/strong> and a <strong>monthly unemployment figure<\/strong> of less than <strong>29,000 people<\/strong>, is precisely &#8220;thanks to the efforts of the business community, the self-employed, and workers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Another objection is that the law does not take into account <strong>the characteristics of each Autonomous Community<\/strong>: &#8220;In the Balearic Islands, we have a <strong>service-based economic system<\/strong> that is a <strong>national and global benchmark<\/strong>, but we also face a <strong>staff shortage<\/strong>. We cannot allow measures to be implemented without considering the specificities of each region and <strong>each sector<\/strong>\u2014measures that <strong>must stem from dialogue and consensus<\/strong>,&#8221; concluded Catalina Cabrer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Regional Ministry of Business, Employment and Energy, through the <a href=\"https:\/\/mallorcaglobalmag.es\/en\/el-govern-en-contra-del-anteproyecto-de-ley-de-reduccion-de-la-jornada-laboral\/\"> [&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":116401,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1515,1516,1513],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-116419","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-economy-and-tourism","category-politics","category-society"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 -
