On Friday, the mandatory conciliation dictated by the Ministry of Labor between the Moscuzza, Solimeno and Xetosiño companies and the SIMAPE and SOMU unions in the face of a labor dispute ended. The unions announced that the boats will not leave until an agreement is reached and the cameras expressed their discontent.
 
On March 15, SOMU and SIMAPE decreed a strike on the companies associated with CEPA for considering that the agreement in the settlement of the salaries of the freezer tanker fleet in 2020 had been violated. Three days later, the Ministry of Labor issued a mandatory reconciliation for 15 days that were fulfilled last Friday. Despite the fact that SOMU has reached a joint agreement in 2021 with all the business chambers, including CEPA, the conflict with the Moscuzza, Solimeno and Xestosiño companies has not come to an end and the continuity of the shrimp season in the northern sector.
 
The claims for bad salary payment and under the agreement of CAPECA and not of CEPA that the unions make are still in force. A new meeting between the parties is scheduled for today and the unions have already announced that the ships will not leave until an agreement is reached.

From the business sector, CEPA, CAPECA and CAPIP issued a statement in response expressing their “concern about the decision made by SIMAPE and the SOMU section of Mar del Plata, ignoring the agreement signed in the joint venture of 2020 for the entire freezer tanker fleet, despite the fact that it is approved by the Ministry of Labor of the Nation ”.
 
“The current situation has paralyzed the freezer tanker fleet of the three companies, affects hundreds of jobs and generates millionaire losses in foreign currency for the country; just at a time when the country needs to reactivate the economy, generate income and sources of formal work ", they point out in the statement and emphasize that "the measure paralyzes 11 shrimp freezer vessels, which represents a loss of production of more than 200 tons of shrimp per day, equivalent to 93 million pesos a day ”.
 
Both SIMAPE and SOMU maintain that Convention 580/10 signed with CEPA has not been complied with and that this has generated a monetary difference to the detriment of the sailors that must be corrected.

From the business chambers it is maintained that "the agreement signed by CEPA together with the one signed by CAPeCA and CAPIP, is legally approved by the Ministry of Labor of the Nation, with scope for all fishing activity, and fully in force".
 
When the 2021 joint agreements were agreed with SOMU, it was taken for granted that the conflict with the three CEPA companies would be solved in other ways, never that the fleet could be paralyzed. The surprise was so great that on Sunday they issued this statement in which they accuse the union representatives of having "maintained an intransigent position and without room for negotiation."
 
Today, in addition to the meeting that the parties involved in the conflict will hold, the business entities will also meet to decide whether to provide support to the firms in conflict with the mooring of the ships as they did at the beginning, mooring the ships.
 
Let us remember that, due to this same problem, the freezer fleet did not participate in the prawn prospecting in the northern sector. Now a season that was just beginning could end untimely.
