on January 28, 2011
Antoni Marsal, President of
Unió Patronal metal·lúrgica, regrets the news of the closure for Yamaha and appealed to the social partners to achieve agreements to prevent the closure of most businesses. "We need to find the ways to ensure the continuity of the industry of the metal." Problems that face at the moment the companies in our sector are too serious to leave solutions 'to the inertia of the market' "."
The artificial rise in the CPI for the month of December, the increase in energy costs and the increase in the prices of the of the raw materials, together with funding and delinquency problems, are some of the causes that aggravate the already difficult situation of the companies of the metal this yearjust at a time when some companies recover, in part, thanks to export order books. "For most of our companies it is unworkable to assume all these costs further wage increases agreed in agreements that were signed some time ago and in other circumstances." "We need to act quickly and decisively before it is too late and the damage is irreversible".
