Japanese Stomach Sitting

Reuters correspondents takes her job insecurity

From CNT want to report the employment situation being experienced in the EFE news agency. The agency has decided to join the wave of insecurity and exploitation that prevails in our labor market. Well intended correspondents, editors and photographers to become autonomous, avoiding the assumption of a working relationship with these professionals. A part of this measure, the agency has established a new tariff that would pay the "new self" completely unfair and delve deeper into the precariousness of this group.

EFE This labor policy is aimed at reducing labor costs; but while this happens, sources suggest that the salary of its President Alex Grijelmo has increased by 51% in two years. This shows the hypocrisy and audacity of the leaders of the state news agency.

On behalf of CNT, we must make clear that this is a totally illegal measure. The excuse made public on the agency's obligation to implement the LETA (Law on the status of self) is not a lie repeated becomes truth. These workers would be considered "false self" as they all receive orders directly from the agency and in many cases working in agencies EFE and material property of the agency. Push aside these workers to Social Security scam to register as a "false self."

This situation is our friend Manuel Ruiz Toribio, Reuters photographer in the province of C. Real for over a decade. Having worked many years for the state agency is forced to become self-employed or leave. Obviously, Manuel chooses to fight for their rights and complaint to the agency.

Therefore, since CNT encourage both workers affected by this situation, as the rest of EFE workers and journalists in general collective struggle and solidarity with the comrades concerned, that only through strength and unity all we get to stop these abuses, to dignify our profession and safeguard our independence in exercising our work, this much maligned concept in these times for our group.


AGAINST precarious in EFE!
