After not having been able to resolve the conflict regarding the payment of salaries for the month of December, the Automotive Tram Union (UTA) of Mar del Platabegan a bus stoppage from 6 p.m. this Monday, for an indefinite period, in full season Of summer.
From the guild that leads Maximilian Scribe They informed local media of the decision, stating: “We regret having to take measures of this type, since until the last minute we collaborated and waited for our salary to be paid,” in reference to the measure that affects not only the residents of the city, but also the tourists who are spending the summer in La Feliz.
Last Friday, the UTA authorities had announced that if they did not complete the payment of salaries corresponding to the month of December, they would carry out the force measure. According to reports, the companies that operate the urban lines would have deposited only a third of the workers’ salaries.
What Cametap says
For its part, the Mar del Plata Chamber of Automotive Passenger Transport Companies (CAMETAP) indicated, through a statement, the situation of “strong financial distress” that they are going through due to “sustained delays in the receipt of subsidy items by the National Transportation Secretariat dating back 3 months,” which would have made it impossible, among other things, “to deal with the entire mass salary” for December.
In this way, the chamber that brings together transport companies recognized the lack of compliance. Meanwhile, the bus lines that suspended service in Mar del Platason: 511, 512, 522, 523, 525, 531, 532, 533, 541, 542, 543, 551, 552, 553, 554, 555, 562, 563, 571, 572, 573, 581, 591, 593, 715, 717, 720, 221.
How it affects tourism
If something was missing from this hectic start to the year, it was a measure of force that would paralyze transportation in the coastal city during the first fortnight of summer. The city recorded a hotel occupancy of 74% during the year-end celebrations, and predicts a month with good booking levels. In contrast to what was stated by the Municipal Tourism Entity in Mar del Plata, the bus strike comes at a time when those who come to the city and seek to reduce their pocketbook a little by using public transportation as the most economical means to move, they cannot do so.
Several “X” users expressed their anger through the social network at the UTA’s decision.
