The staff of special centers will receive the full salary even if they are in ERTE

by

The special employment centers, which in the Basque Country employ more than 9,000 people with some functional diversity, and job placement companies, which host another 1,400, go through particularly difficult times. Much of these templates are dedicated to manufacturing components for other companies that, especially during the fortnight of economic hibernation, which only allowed them to maintain essential activities, lowered the blind and left them almost without orders.

So many were forced to resort to temporary employment regulation records. The ERTEs. And more than 4,000 employees have been affected, so many, whose salary barely exceeds the interprofessional minimum wage (950 euros per month), should only receive 70% paid by Lanbide. However, they will charge 100%, as announced by the Lehendakari, Íñigo Urkullu, during the visit he made in Sestao to the facilities of Lantegi Batuak, an entity that has ‘recycled’ 70 workers in four of its centers and has put them in make masks. They already produce 10,000 a week.

Urkullu acknowledged that the Basque Government must reinforce its commitment to maintain employment conditions “for people with disabilities”. Apply a “positive discrimination” that, in this case, will be achieved by maintaining the aid that is already given to these employees, even though during the ERTEs their contracts, in some way, decline.

“They will have difficulties”

“In the case of special employment centers they are 475 euros per month per person, and in the case of insertion companies, 12,300 per year,” explained the Deputy Minister of Employment and Social Policies, Marcos Muro, who accompanied the visit to the lehendakari and the head of her department, Beatriz Artolazabal. With this money, “we hope to cover the amounts that these people have stopped receiving and thus, in practice, consolidate their full salary until they can return to their jobs.”

The managing director of Lantegi Batuak, Txema Franco, highlighted his concern for the future of job centers and insertion companies, which bring together people with problems to enter the labor market, and who provide them with the self-esteem and necessary tools. “We know how much it has cost us to achieve the labor inclusion quotas that we have today, and we are very aware of the difficulties of access to the labor market that people with disabilities will have in the future,” he warned.

At least, he acknowledged, fifty hundred workers have seen their jobs reinforced, “since they work in the cleaning and laundry of residences and hospitals and even make home delivery for the elderly.” On the other hand, 807 employees have had to cause compulsory leave, mainly because they are people at risk of contagion.

Girona and the workforce reach an agreement for a reduction in pay

by

Aday Benitez said, three weeks ago, at the beginning of total confinement, that the staff had strongly assumed that Girona could use a temporary employment regulation file (ERTO) to try to better support the situation caused by the pandemic. of the coronavirus. Sentmenat, one of the team captains, said that “you have to come up with the idea and be prepared because it looks like it’s going to happen”. During these days, since the alarm was decreed, Girona has always been in contact with the staff as well as with the rest of the club’s employees. There were all the options on the table, also, of course, the one of the ERTO, in order to find a formula that would allow the club to alleviate the loss of revenue due to the stoppage of the competition and all activities. However, the solution has come in the form of an agreement to reduce salaries. After a few days of talks, last night, Girona announced the final agreement with the template for “a voluntary reduction of salaries”.

In this way, players, coaching staff and management have agreed to reduce their salaries by 15% in case the competition cannot be resumed and terminated. This cut would be reduced if the league resumed behind closed doors and would be 3%. In a statement, Girona described the staff’s position as a “gesture of responsibility and commitment” to accept this situation, and thanked them for “their understanding and collaboration” at all times. In the same way, Girona has also proposed a voluntary reduction of 3% of the annual salary to the rest of the club’s employees.

With the economic agreement with the squad and the coaching staff, Girona is now awaiting the end of the season. At the moment, it seems that La Liga intends to finish it on the pitch, probably behind closed doors. The entity that presides over Javier Tebas has already sent a manual to all the clubs with the protocol that should be followed when it is time to return to training and resume the competition.

However, everything will depend on the approval of the health care authorities. For its part, the Federation has already made it clear that Second B down is its position to end the season without relegation and only to do a few play-offs express to decide the promotion.

Girona, meanwhile, continues to work on social projects, detailing that, “through this sacrifice”, it will double the financial contribution to the fundraising campaign for Doctor Josep Trueta University Hospital.

Frana limits Amazon’s activity by not protecting the workforce

by

A French court has ordered Amazon to restrict its activity in France and will only allow you to sell essential products such as foods, hygiene products and medical products. The company faces a daily fine of one million euros if it violates the court decision, according to the French press. The restriction will apply on a day, month, or until Amazon makes one assessment of occupational risks for workers of their stores. French justice partially gives reason to employees who complained about the company’s failure to protect them from covid-19, who had called for a full shutdown of distribution centers.

The staff of Real Madrid lowers the salary at least 10%

by

The Real Madrid squad, like Castilla and the basketball section, reached an agreement with the club on Wednesday to lower their salary by 10% if the competition resumes and 20% if they do not it can be played again this season. The decision, taken “voluntarily” by players, coaches and top executives from the different directions of the club, “avoids traumatic measures that affect the rest of the workers,” said Real Madrid.

The white club considers that this reduction also “contributes to the economic objectives of the entity in view of the decrease in income that it suffers these months as a result of the suspension of competitions and the paralysis of a large part of its commercial activities.”

“The club’s Works Committee emphatically endorses this decision, which it considers responsible and exemplary,” said Real Madrid through a public statement, in which it was “proud of all those who make up this great family and their unwavering culture.” of values, which becomes especially valuable in times of difficulty like this ».

The negotiation for the reduction of the annual salary, carried out between the captains, with Sergio Ramos in charge, and the CEO of Real Madrid, José Ángel Sánchez, and will result in at least a saving of around 50 million euros for the club. If the season could not be resumed, the resignation of the staff at 20% of their salary would therefore mean about 100 million.

This is how the new paid and recoverable permit works: who it is for and how it is applied | Economy

by

The government took another step yesterday to prevent the mobility of people in a desperate attempt to curb the spread of coronavirus. The objective of the Government is to try to ensure that the mobility of citizens during the next fifteen days is similar to that of a Sunday, Labor Minister Yolanda Díaz explained yesterday. For this, the Government approved a newly created “paid and recoverable work permit” (ex novo), which will be enjoyed by all workers whose companies are still active and are not part of the essential services. These are the details of the new permission:

  • What does this permit consist of? It is about all the workers who are not part of the essential services and were still going to work in person to their jobs until yesterday, stay at home from today until April 9 (both included) and receive their wages. Although, the norm foresees that, today Monday, the workers can go to their position “with the sole purpose of carrying out the essential tasks to make the recoverable paid leave effective, without prejudice to the resumption of business activity.” At the end of the validity of this permit (April 9) and until next December 31, these workers must negotiate and agree with the company how to recover “all or part” of the hours not performed in the eight working days of leave.
  • What will the workers who receive it charge? The beneficiaries of this new permit will receive their ordinary salary for the whole of the usual working day and all the remuneration items, including base salary and salary supplements.
  • Who can take advantage of this new situation? This permit is, according to the Royal Decree approved yesterday, for “all working people who provide services in those companies that do not carry out activities that are essential.” The norm establishes which are these essential services that are outside of the stoppage and, therefore, of this permit.
  • In what situations will this permission not apply? “In no case may the recoverable paid leave be applied to persons who are on sick leave due to disability (or maternity and paternity) or whose contract is suspended for legally established causes.” This is the case of companies that have already applied for or are applying an Employment Regulation File (ERTE) to their workforce who will not have to apply this permit either. As well as to those companies to which one of these ERTEs is authorized while the permit is valid (until April 9). Companies will also not have to apply it to employees who “can continue to carry out their activities normally by teleworking or any other non-contact modality of service provision.”
  • Will companies be able to continue requesting ERTE for Covid-19? Yes, those who have seen their activity affected by the limits of the alarm state or by the new suspensions of activity decreed yesterday may continue to choose to do an ERTE or apply this permit until April 9.
  • What happens if the company has requested an ERTE to reduce hours or applies a suspension ERTE only to part of its staff? In both cases, the company may combine the two situations, applying the permit to the part of the day not reduced or to those who are not in suspension ERTE. Or you can extend the suspension ERTE to the entire staff.
  • What is its duration? From March 30 to April 9. April 9 and 10 are Thursday and Good Friday, so this period is 8 working days for most communities.
  • Retainers. The company may set the minimum number of staff or shifts to maintain the essential activity. In any case, “this activity and this minimum number of staff or shifts will have as a reference that held on an ordinary weekend or on holidays.”
  • Obligation to negotiate the recovery of horace. The norm obliges the company to negotiate with the workers the formulas to recover the hours of work not performed. Said recovery may be carried out from the day following the end of the alarm state and until December 31, 2020. The Government allows “a huge margin” to negotiate between companies and workers on how to recover hours not worked. They allow any agreed formula as long as it respects the daily and weekly breaks and the conciliation rights granted to the workers.
  • Consultation period for negotiation. The amount and the manner in which the hours not worked during this permit will be carried out must obligatorily “be negotiated in a period of consultations between the company and the representation of the workers in a maximum period of seven days”. If there is no legal representation of the staff in the company, an ad hoc commission must be formed for this negotiation, either by the most representative unions or, failing that, it will be integrated by three company workers, to be created within a maximum period of five days.
  • When the pact is impossible. If there is no agreement, the company will decide how to recover. The norm indicates that if a pact is not reached between the company and the workers regarding the recovery formula for these eight days not worked, the company will notify the staff and the negotiating commission, within seven days from the end. of the consultations, the decision you have made about when and how to do the leave hours.

Chaos, inconsistency Marks the launch of the Drive-thru Virus – NBC Los Angeles test

by

Drive-thru sites have been opened in the United States to make testing the new coronavirus faster and safer. But just like the rest of the United States’ response to the pandemic, the system has been characterized by inconsistencies, delays and shortcomings. Many people who have symptoms and a doctor’s order have waited hours or days for a test.

More than a week after President Donald Trump promised that states and retail stores such as Walmart and CVS would open drive-through test centers, few sites are active and are not yet open to the public. Some states are leaving the test sector open to the private sector; others are coordinating efforts through state health departments.

Patients complained that they had to jump through bulky red tape and wait for days to get tested, then wait even longer for a result. The test centers were opened in some places to be closed shortly afterwards due to the shortage of supplies and staff. And while the drive-through test centers that have been opened are generally sorted, in some there have been long lines.

The slow increase in COVID-19 tests and the unpredictable nature of the system make it difficult for public health officials to track the spread of the disease and bring it under control.

“We need to do more extensive testing to fully understand the scale of the public health situation we are facing,” said Joseph Wendelken, a spokesman for the Rhode Island Department of Health.

Dr Brett Giroir, the federal health officer in charge of overseeing the tests, said on Saturday at a White House briefing that approximately 195,000 people have so far been tested in the United States. This figure does not include some people who have been tested in private laboratories.

For most people, the new coronavirus causes only mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough. For some, especially older adults and people with existing health problems, it can cause more serious illnesses, including pneumonia. The vast majority of people recover from the new virus. According to the World Health Organization, people with mild illness recover in about two weeks, while those with more severe illness can take anywhere from three weeks to six weeks to recover.

Drive-through test sites have sprung up in places in over 30 states: in state parks and parking lots, near medical centers and universities, the Mississippi state fairgrounds, and near where the Jacksonville Jaguars play. The governor of Maryland last week ordered the stopping of vehicle emission inspection programs across the state, so that the offices could be used as drive-thru centers to test the virus.

But as of Friday, there were no open drive-through tests available in Maryland inspection centers.

The Utah health department said it is not responsible for the sites and is not monitoring them. The North Carolina health director said the state is leaving the tests to the private sector and declined to say how many sites there are. In contrast, in Rhode Island, health organizations manage the sites in collaboration with the state health department.

On Thursday, cars lined up for more than a mile outside a hospital in Houston when the first drive-through test site was opened. U.S. representative Sheila Jackson Lee said she administered fewer than 200 tests in the first six hours.

Elsewhere, at various sites visited by Associated Press reporters, the scenes were well controlled and sometimes quite silent.

Dozens of people waiting by car in a downtown Homestead, Florida on Wednesday waited for their turn to speak with a screener who was wearing a suit and mask and carrying notes. Some were apparently removed. Others were stirred, checked their temperatures, and swabbed for the samples.

But the shortage of supply has stopped the thrusters in several states, including Colorado, New Mexico, Virginia, Florida, Louisiana, Alabama, North Carolina and Utah. A Las Vegas site was shut down because it didn’t have enough workers.

New York state opened several centers with great fanfare on Tuesday. By Friday, however, the New York City health department issued a warning saying that only people requesting hospitalization should be tested, due to a shortage of protective equipment such as face masks. Drive-thru sites in New York State remain open, but only to people who meet certain criteria.

Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak said he had asked the federal government for additional test kits and supplies, but the state received a warning Thursday that all of its requests for drive-through test pods and test kits “are undefined arrears, without any estimate of a timeline for delivery. “

“This is our unfortunate Nevada reality. It depends on us, “he said.

The sites themselves are dotted with tents and traffic cones. The most important features are medical personnel who wear masks, gloves and protective vests or other clothing. They take nose and throat swabs from people sitting in their cars or help people get in for the test.

Some states have only one drive-thru site. Montana’s only site is in Billings, the largest city in the state. Others have a dozen.

Security guards have been reported on many sites, but an AP survey of states did not reveal any security concerns. In Rhode Island, the National Guard was on hand to set up the state’s three drive-thru sites and even to buffer patients.

The vast network of drive-thru sites in retail chains that Trump claimed was coming over a week ago has not materialized yet. CVS has opened a site in Massachusetts that defines a “test model”. Walmart launched two sites on Sunday and Walgreens said it will launch one, all three in Illinois. Only healthcare professionals and first responders are allowed, and Walmart said that a maximum of 150 tests per day could be performed on its federal sites.

The patchwork of approaches has caused confusion for patients. Caroline Mauldin was sentenced to get tested by her doctor in Charleston, South Carolina on Tuesday after suffering from pain and chills for several days.

To make an appointment at a center in a medical center, she had to fill out a long online questionnaire and spent two days calling a number that went to voicemail and did not answer messages. He resorted to tweets in the hospital several times just to get things going.

Finally, on Thursday, he had an appointment for Monday. And she was told that the results would not return until after 4-5 days. The visit will cost you $ 25, he said. Complicating things, he doesn’t have a car and has to borrow it from a friend.

“Here we have a lot of older, low-income people who don’t have Internet access and who don’t have access to transportation. And since they’re the highest risk population, how are we testing for them?” She asked.

In urban areas such as New York and Philadelphia, some sites offer “walk-up” dating for people without cars.

At the Penn Medicine test site in West Philadelphia, two security agents were late on Thursday to make sure that people arriving by car or on foot had an appointment. For about 40 minutes that evening, the line of cars never grew to more than six or seven. But Patricia Sullivan, Penn Medicine’s quality manager, said every morning last week, 25-35 cars were lined up and six or seven standing patients were 6 feet apart on a porch waiting to be seen.

The 20 sites in Greater Philadelphia are testing around 1,000 people a day, but that hasn’t eliminated pent-up demand.

Rosanne Tanner’s 79-year-old mother has been suffering from fever and chest pain since returning from a visit to Tanner’s brother and wife, who had recently been on a cruise ship.

His doctor ordered a test on Tuesday, but when he tried to make an appointment at a drive-through site in a hospital outside of Philadelphia, he was told that “they are overloaded, they are bogged down,” Tanner said.

Medical staff told her that they are scheduling 15 minutes apart, so there are no bottlenecks on the test site.

Finally on Thursday his mother made sure of an appointment for the following Tuesday. Then, he will have to wait another five days for a result.

“The delay in these tests is putting people at risk,” said Tanner.

In Rhode Island, state officials said they are testing 100 to 200 people per day at all test sites, including three drive thrusters.

Governor Gina Raimondo said they want to perform 500 to 600 a day, but they don’t have the supplies they need.

“It is our top priority to reach a place where everyone who needs it can be tested and you will get results very quickly,” said Raimondo during a press conference held on Facebook Live on Friday on Friday. “So if you’re positive, we can quarantine you.”

Valencia confirms 35% positive for coronavirus between staff and technical staff

by

Valencia CF has confirmed in a statement the results of the tests carried out on the squad, coaching staff and other first-team personnel to determine the extent of the Covid-19 effect. This Sunday the club and the interested parties already announced the first five positives detected by coronavirus, those of the footballersEzequiel Garay, Eliaquim Mangala and José Luis Gayà,in addition to the member of the medical staffJuan Aliagaand the delegateFrancisco Camarasa.

In this new communication, the club ofMestallaalready speaks of 35% of positive results, which would mean, as SUPER reported from this Sunday and Monday in its printed edition, at least five other cases of Covid-19, although surely there will be a few more. What theValencia CFis that all the cases detected are being asymptomatic, they are infected by the virus but at least not ill at the moment, a fact that has undoubtedly been one of the factors that has caused a greater risk of spreading the virus among the entire group of the Valencian first team in the last two weeks.

Despite the strict measures that were established in the club, the contagion occurred after having traveled to Milan in a few weeks, having played two games against theAtalantaand the last one in Vitoria against Alavés.

This is the full statement

“Valencia CF reports new positive cases of coronavirusCOVID-19in technicians and first team players. All are asymptomatic cases and are in their homes with medical monitoring and isolation measures, carrying out their scheduled work plan normally. Despite the strict measures adopted by the Club after playing a UEFA Champions League match in Milan on February 19, 2020, an area confirmed as high risk by the Italian authorities days later, distancing the staff from the work environment and the public in In general, the latest results show that the inherent exposure to parties has caused around 35% of positive cases.

Valencia CF takes advantage of this new test for high virus contagiousness to insist that the population stay at home and strictly follow all the hygiene and prevention measures already published. Likewise, it reinforces confidence in our health system and in the recommendations of the Ministry of Health for those mild cases of coronavirus infection that are in home isolation. We recall that the telephone number for attention to the coronavirus in the Valencian Community is900300555“

Massachusetts has planned a pandemic for years. Here is what is expected. – NBC Boston

by

Flatten the curve.

You have probably heard public health officials repeat this phrase as they announce major cancellations and closures related to the new coronavirus pandemic.

So what exactly does that mean? And what can you do to help?

The “curve” refers to exponential growth in new cases that could occur if the virus can spread uncontrollably in the community.

A sharp spike in COVID-19, the disease caused by the virus, could bring a stream of new patients, many of whom would need intensive care. Experts say the scenario would have overwhelmed the health system, making it more difficult to make life-saving treatments for all sick people.

The director of the National Institute for Allergies and Infectious Diseases, dr. Anthony Fauci explains social distancing and how it can help slow the spread of coronavirus in elderly and immunocompromised patients.

That’s why it’s imperative to stop the transmission of the virus and slow it down in the coming weeks, said Dr. Davidson Hamer, an infectious disease specialist at the University of Boston School of Public Health.

Even if the same number of people contract the virus, doctors and nurses will have a greater chance of saving lives if the cases spread over a longer period of time.

“If there is a big wave all at once, then hospitals could run out of beds, run out of negative pressure rooms,” he said. “You know, if there are many patients on fans, potentially even running out of fans.”

State leaders have yet to indicate what could be a spike in COVID-19 cases in Massachusetts. In a press conference last week, Health and Human Services Secretary Marylou Sudders said the state is now busy planning scenarios for “what could happen in Massachusetts.”

Governor Charlie Baker has announced that Massachusetts has established a command center for coronavirus response. Recognizing the empty shelves seen around Commonwealth food stores, he told people that there is no need to accumulate food.

The Massachusetts Hospital Association has forwarded NBC10 Boston’s questions to the Department of Public Health, which has not yet responded to requests for information on the state’s hospital capacity.

But previous state projections shed light on how serious a public health emergency in the Bay State can be.

In a 2006 flu pandemic preparedness plan, Massachusetts public health officials predicted that as many as 2 million people would fall ill following the emergence of a new respiratory disease.

Using the modeling developed by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the state predicted that over 1 million people would have to be treated on an outpatient basis, based on the most likely scenario of how the pandemic would spread across the globe. state. The model predicted that over 80,000 people would have to be treated in a hospital and up to 20,000 could die, in part because the hospital system would be overwhelmed by a flood of cases.

As part of the preparation planning, public health officials in Massachusetts asked hospitals across the state to negotiate agreements to use other large facilities in their region, such as high schools and arsenals, such as so-called “alternative care sites”. The state plans to touch those facilities to treat patients with less severe cases of theoretical disease, allowing hospitals to focus only on the sickest patients.

Importantly, the new coronavirus that now plagues people around the world may not follow the same trajectory as that shown in the state’s projections. These numbers were based on the assumption that 30 percent of the population would contract the virus. This figure may be higher or lower as researchers collect more data on the virus causing COVID-19.

The president and vice president told the public that anyone who wants a test can get one, but dozens of people have contacted NBC10 Boston investigators to say it wasn’t their experience, including a chemotherapy patient.

Massachusetts’ population has also increased since the state made its forecasts, going from about 6.4 million in 2006 to about 6.9 million today.

Emergency measures put in place by Governor Charlie Baker and others could also mitigate the spike in the epidemic, Hamer said, drastically reducing the number of patients who need treatment simultaneously and potentially saving lives.

“If social distancing and personal hygiene and work at home and all these types of strategies don’t work and we have a very large number of cases in a short period of time, I think it could overwhelm the health care system,” he said.
