The Government has made the shock plan for youth employment to come forward with the endorsement of the unions and the employers. The progress of the conversations of recent weeks made you think that employers ‘ organisations CEOE and Cepyme not join the agreement, already almost completed that were UGT, CC OO and the Ministry of Labour. But finally, after the arrival of Antonio Garamendi to president of CEOE on the 21st of November, the organization has joined this Wednesday.
This pact allows the new president of CEOE begin his career with an agreement with the Government and with the unions. In addition, it does so in the simplest part: a crash plan for youth employment in which the proposed measurements do not pose any wear to the organization he leads Garamendi. The more difficult it may be to reach agreements in other negotiations open, as there is to reform collective bargaining.
“The agreement has been reached in view of the need to adopt positive measures to promote and encourage the employment of young people through a comprehensive plan that embodies the commitment of the members of the bureau, with the young people, and after the necessary process of negotiation, debate and discussion in the framework of the social dialogue. The plan will be forwarded to the Council of Ministers for approval and to the Bureau-General of Social Dialogue”, says the joint Sahabet statement issued on Wednesday afternoon after a last morning meeting.
Regarding the content of the plan, according to the latest versions of the plan, is maintained as a star, the first of the 50 that contains: the recruitment of 3,000 counselors work, which is in charge of advising the unemployed to return to find employment as soon as possible and to probe the market to find job offers. However, those with 3,000 guidance counselors are not fixed, but “officials acting in the mode per program for a maximum of 18 months.”
“after the duration of the temporary program, shall be […] to the evaluation of the results of the same. The outcome of this assessment will determine the continuity of the same up to the legal maximum allowed, its completion or final well the joint through the instrument of planning of human resources relevant to the incorporation of personnel in a stable manner on the part of each Autonomous Community”, continues to the last draft, who has had access to this journal.
Sources of Work point out that their initial intention of the current Executive branch is to stabilize these squares. However, the fixed term, 18 months, and uncertainty over the political situation does not ensure that that will happen. There is already a precedent for this. In the stage of José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero was hired to 3,000 counselors work. In 2012, when he emphasized the cuts, as with the PP in the Government, these were dismissed.
