There is already a date for the approval of the Minimum Interprofessional Salary of 1,080 euros per month in 14 payments and which will be retroactive from January 1. This was announced this Wednesday by the Second Vice President of the Government and Minister of Labor, Yolanda Díaz.
Before meetings in Valladolid with union and business representatives to address the situation of labor mediation in Castilla y León, the minister reproached the president of the CEOE, Antonio Garamendi, for reflecting his disagreement with the new SMI this past Tuesday with his absence of the meeting where it was thought.
After expressing her personal and institutional respect for Garamendi, the minister has registered the obligation of the CEOE to go to the Social Dialogue Table “as it always does in the remaining matters and say what it deems appropriate there.” Thus, Díaz has announced that the expected date for its approval is February 14.
The social agents “are very important and have to comply with their constitutional functions: declining attendance at a body is not like Mr. Garamendi”, he insisted in his criticism of the president of the CEOE.
