The Board of the National Workers’ Union of Empresa de Correos de Chile (SINTECH) has publicly denounced the indiscriminate dismissal of numerous employees from the postal administration on grounds of an alleged business economic crisis that, undoubtedly, will seriously affect the entire Chilean working class. In light of this situation, the union has engaged in a relentless fight in defence of the jobs of its members. To this end, it has sent a letter to the President of the Republic and the Ministers of Labour and of Communications requesting that they “urgently see to it that bipartite audits be conducted in companies and unions in order to bring to light what is known to be dubious management of fiscal funds both in state-owned and private companies, which use workers’ pension funds to their benefit.”
