They call on the Basque Government to publish the ambulance service

  • In a camp organized by LAB, the workers have asked the Basque Government "not to delay the path of privatization until now and publish the ambulance service" because "it will not solve the structural problem".

Ambulance workers have starred in a 24-hour camp at the Plaza de la Virgen Blanca in Vitoria-Gasteiz, and have mobilized on Tuesday at 12:30. The LAB trade union has pointed out that, despite the suspension of the contract and the change of company of the company La Pau, the problem is private management, since it considers that subcontracting "seriously" harms the service and supposes nothing but "precariousness for the workers and insufficient service for the citizens".

They have therefore called for the Basque Government to put an end to the privatisation of the ambulance service in the Basque Country.
