A Coruña: UGT focuses on Marineda due to eventual contracts and layoffs at Zara | Radio Coruña

The UGT union denounces that Zara is extending the temporary contracts of its workers for years, 99% are women, and that it is carrying out unjustified dismissals in stores in the province of A Coruña. Union delegates have concentrated in the Marineda City square, where large Zara Mujer, Caballero and Niño stores are located. UGT demands the reinstatement of the workers.

They point out that the Labor Inspectorate has already forced 38 temporary contracts to be transformed into indefinite ones after the complaint from the works council. This union points out that Zara is exceeding the maximum allowed by law, maintaining temporary contracts even since 2009, when they should be indefinite. It also denounces dismissals of workers that, the union says, the company itself admits are valid to carry out their position.
