Amendment to minimum services because of announced metal strike

The regional authority has corrected an earlier determination on minimum services after unions announced a several‑day, full‑day strike in the metal sector.

At the end of June UGT INDUSTRIA Balears filed a notification in which the unions CCOO, UGT and USO declared a legally registered strike for companies covered by the metal collective agreement of the Balearic Islands.

According to UGT's documents the stoppage is scheduled for several consecutive days at the end of July and is to take place each day for the full day. The submitted documents did not include a proposal from the unions for the setting of minimum services.

The amendment now published corrects errors in an order made in mid‑July setting those minimum services. There is also an official note from the end of July recording a meeting between the strike committee and the employers' associations ASEMA and FEBAME.

As the legal basis the authority cites the constitutionally protected right to strike, which is not without limits and must be reconciled with guarantees to preserve essential services; there is relevant case law of the Constitutional Court on this.
