Bogota. Mauricio Martínez Acuña, Jorge Díaz Romero, Yuly Higuera Nieto, Jairo Andrés Muñóz Barbosa and Yerimen Iván Bonilla integrate Telmex Workers’ Union (SINTRATELMEX) Negotiating Committee; Gabriel Pérez Puentes is advisor in representation of the CGT, and Leonor C. Sierra Acosta represents UNI americas, as well as union advisor Angel Santamaría.



The list of demands considers the following subjects, among others: union guarantees and regulatory and administrative rights in relation to collective bargaining, social and economic demands.



Two sessions have been carried out so far, in which the Negotiating and Advisory Committee extensively supported each of the presented issues. The company, for its part, committed to study the demands and provide an answer during the meetings programmed to take place on November 28^th and December 1^st, 2010.



It is important to point out that UNI Americas expressed to the company’s management its interest to conclude the negotiations in a satisfactory way according to what’s established by the Codes of Ethics and Corporate Social Responsibility, OECD Guidelines for multinational enterprises, ILO international Conventions, and the National Constitution.



We hope the entrepreneurial principle adopted by Telmex in its Code of Ethics shall be achieved: “Nobody develops alone. Development is achieved through joint effort, by interacting with others: a better company, a better worker, a better citizen, a better family”.
