Carriers also have to go to the service


20 November 2024 - 11:00

November 19 is World Bathing Day. Even today, in the twenty-first century, many workers here in the Basque Country do not have the right to use the toilet in their working days. Many transport workers are an example of this.

Toilets are the key to public health and play a fundamental role in protecting the environment. Sanitation and clean water are human rights and access to them is essential to human health and environmental integrity.

Leaving so many people without safe toilets poses a risk to workers in this sector and especially to women, who pay the highest price in terms of health and insecurity.

Private companies and parliamentarians do not offer a toilet or decent sanitation service for safe and rapid use, which violates the human rights of transport workers.

A bathroom can give a little detail, but it is essential for the workers and not for the private companies that provide the service, nor for the Member, who is the last responsible, seems to be of no importance. Private companies and parliamentarians do not offer a toilet or decent sanitation service for safe and rapid use, which violates the human rights of transport workers, in addition to labour rights. In addition, these workers do not have all the time available to be able to use it, often use it to a certain extent and in a fair, or have no choice after having made the complete journey.

The toilet has several risks; maintaining the desire to go to the bathroom poses a significant risk to the safety of workers and citizens (who carry their lives in transport), as it can impair their cognitive function, which could have negative consequences in the transport sector. Because of its risks, Royal Decree 486/1997 of 14 April, laying down minimum health and safety requirements in workplaces, provides in Annex V, concerning hygiene services and rest places, the presence of toilets in workplaces and the possibility of using toilets and toilets in workplaces when they do not perform their work in a work place is not built, when their position is not.

At LAB we are clear that all workers must have at our disposal the appropriate toilets and sanitation systems, of good quality and spaces suitable for their needs. We are going to fight not to deny that right.

Negotiation: The Reason for Crying

Public education teachers have the need and the right to update and improve the work agreement that has not been renewed in fifteen years. For this, we should be immersed in a real negotiation, but the reality is deplorable. In a negotiation, the agreement of all parties must be... [+]

It’s been two weeks since we once again showed macro-projects a clear opposition in the streets. Thousands and thousands of people took to the streets to proclaim that this destructive dynamic must end. Well, it seems that this has not had any effect on the politicians in... [+]

In Vitoria-Gasteiz, there are plenty of beggars

English: the dandruff of all the sticks

From linguistics or glotophobia and, of course, hatred against Basque, we have often seen our Basque become the dandruff of all sticks. Last of all, the president of Kutxabank, Anton Arriola, has been shaking our language and giving us galantas.The President of Kutxabank,

There is a link between Euskal Ya and AHT in Navarre

Do not look for this connection from Ezkio or Altsasu, let alone crossing the Ebro River through Castejón. The connection, or rather the connections, between the Basque Y and the AVE of Navarre is already a reality. It is these links in the plural that should concern us and... [+]


April 6, justice for the Basque

Don't make a fuss, don't confront, don't victimize... and obey. As oppressed subjects, in this case as Basques, we talk, how many times have we had to listen to them? Ironically, two years ago, at the Euskalale Independentiston Meeting, Esne Arzallus said: "We have arrived here,... [+]
