The Business Confederation of the Valencian Community (CEV) and the CCOO and UGT unions signed a pioneering agreement on March 29, 2021 that affects public procurement in the Valencian Community and that is a novelty for companies. This pact obliges companies that obtain a public contract to incorporate workers with the same conditions that they had in the previous company.
The Valencia City Council has pending conflicts over this agreement, which has caused conflict in contracts for traffic management and ornamental fountains, and that is why the debate will include specialists from the public administration and from the academic and trade union fields who, in Five tables will take stock of this pioneering agreement, which only applies in the Valencian Community.
The event will start with the table "The Valencian social dialogue" in which the general director of Coordination of Social Dialogue in the Presidency of the Valencian Government, Zulima Pérez i Seguí, and the professor of the University of Valencia Adrián Todolí will participate.
In another table, the vision of the agreement for labour subrogation in public contracting will be presented from the Valencian Government’s legal counsel, with the director of the study cabinet of this body, Fernando Bellvert. In the following intervention, the same matter will be analysed from the perspective of the town councils, with the vice-president of the General Council of Secretaries, Controllers and Treasurers of Local Administration (Cosital) of Valencia and vice-secretary of the Riba-roja de Túria Town Hall, José Luis Serrano Borraz.
In addition, the application problems of the agreement will be discussed with Ana María Mejías, labour lawyer at UGT-País Valencià.
