Pablo Moyano Rejects Municipalization of Waste Collection Service: "It's Precariousness"

As La Nación, we report on the strong opposition from Pablo Moyano, deputy secretary of the Truckers' Union, to the proposed municipalization of waste collection and sweeping services. Moyano vehemently rejects this move, labeling it as direct "precariousness for workers" and a "direct attack against truck drivers." He argues that such a transfer of responsibilities would undermine hard-won collective bargaining agreements and lead to wage reductions, pushing thousands of working families into poverty. Moyano explicitly links Hernán Doval, head of the Federation of Municipal Workers, to the interests of mayors and businesspeople seeking to diminish workers' rights. He pointedly equates Doval's stance with that of economic figures like Luis Caputo and Federico Sturzenegger, suggesting a unified agenda to erode labor protections. The union leader emphasized that the current agreements are the result of "years of struggle, sacrifice, and resistance," vowing not to concede any jobs. This perspective from La Nación highlights the ongoing tension between labor unions and governmental/municipal initiatives aimed at restructuring public services, underscoring the union's commitment to defending workers' rights and established conditions against what they perceive as a broader trend of labor deregulation.
