FRENTE-MAR CHALLENGES THE REJECTION OF THE LAY-OFF REQUEST AND CRITICISES SOCIAL SECURITY

The rejection of the request for lay-off by the Frente Mar Funchal, made public today by the JM, deserved the indignation of the company’s management.

In a statement sent to JM, criticisms of Social Security are constant, considering the Frente Mar Funchal to be “incomprehensible the rejection of the lay-off requirement presented by the Frente Mar Funchal, based on the argument of its public nature, when the FMF is a company of the local business sector, with the same legal status as many other companies in the country that were given resources to lay-off, such as the case of the Termas de São Pedro do Sul, in the District of Viseu. ”

Thus, it announces that it will appeal the decision. “Frente Mar Funchal, EM will appeal against this decision by the Social Security Institute IP-RAM and will continue to defend, with unwavering determination, the rights that assist it, in safeguarding its workers and maintaining the safety and quality of service it provides to employees. from Funchal. ”

The municipal company says it is “regrettable and unacceptable that the Madeira Social Security Institute, IP-RAM lends itself to similar types of procedures that undermine privacy and its duty of confidentiality, publicly broadcasting information regarding procedural matters of a particular company, in a well-known context, in which more than three thousand Madeiran companies used the same resource, without the result of their attempt having been the object of public exposure ”.

The statement adds that “it is not the first time that the Social Security Institute, IP-RAM intends to specifically and publicly discriminate against the Frente Mar Funchal, in a systematic attempt to destabilise this municipal company sponsored by entities managed by the PSD, and that it can only be understood in the light of party political interests, without any respect for the company’s workers, nor for the people of Funchal ”.
