President: “Government has not waived Public Employment Plan”

July 5, 2019 by Staff News Writer

Despite the fact that the draft Public Employment Law has taken a back seat in recent weeks in Congress and that unions demand its withdrawal from the legislative current, Carlos Alvarado announced on Thursday that his administration will not renounce the approval of this plan.

Alvarado said that the project processed under file 21.336 that seeks to bring order to all wage schemes in the country still counts on the support of his administration, but admitted that now those who interfere with its procedure are in the Legislative Assembly.

Alvarado did not guarantee that the plan will be withdrawn, as demanded by the unions, rather he was inclined to promote a negotiation, as in the case of plans to regulate strikes in essential services.

It has to be discussed, the government has not given up on this project and we understand that it should be managed among the cluster of projects in the Assembly, which are not few. Its time will come, but there are many things before,”

said Alvarado.
