CCOO and UGT which do not have a majority of trade unions will sign with the employers a pre-agreement of employment in the sports management sector. The draft agreement reached with Ageneda has a three-year application, one retrospective (2022) for the years 2023 and 2024. The workers began on 18 October with an indefinite strike and has not yet been terminated.

Trade unions and managing sports and swimming pools have met on Wednesday morning and reached an agreement that provides for an annual increase of 4.5% in 2022 and 2023, and 3% in 2024, with state unions.

CCOO maintains 35% of representation at the negotiating table and UGT 11%. Between them they do not reach 51% of workers in order to ensure that the agreed agreement has a general application for all workers. The text will therefore have limited effectiveness, i.e. each worker seeking to benefit from this Convention must accede to it, i.e. workers must proceed separately to benefit from it.

It is precisely ELA that criticises this point, that the agreement has no general implementation. The union of Iturralde and Suit Street will not sign the agreement, as "this percentage increase will be lower" in the group of sports monitors, as "this increase will not be made over the total wage".

They add that "the agreement signed by CCOO and UGT is of limited effectiveness, because these two unions do not represent 50% of the representation of the sector", so "areas of negotiation can be opened in the workplace to improve the conditions agreed by these two unions". ELA warns that the infrastructures of Burlada and the Egüés Valley have already been opened, but that it follows the strike and it cannot be ruled out that strikes spread to other sports clubs.

Pre-agreement keys

In other areas, CCOO, UGT and employers, Sedena, Gexport, Soysan and Urtats, agree to extend one more day of their own affairs, so they will have two paid days each year.

The agreement improves the allowance. First low: from day 61 the complement will increase by 10%, from 80% to 90% and second low: from day 61 the complement will increase by 10%, from 75% to 85%.

In the paid leave section, the employer undertakes to increase from six to ten hours the paid hours to go to the doctor, remaining three days for the death of parents, siblings or siblings instead of two as before. It also has beef cover.
