The leadership of the CGT meets this Monday afternoon with President Alberto Fernández at Casa Rosada.
Upon his arrival, Héctor Daer, general secretary of the union confederation, marked the agenda and left a message: "We would have liked
there to be more
union
candidates
."
Daer answered like this to the journalists accredited in the Government, at the entrance to the Eva Perón room, who were waiting for the meeting agreed to start at 16:00. They asked him about the union presence in the lists of the Frente de Todos and said: there are more candidates,
there is no doubt
. But the important thing is that we are seated at
the table where the future of the country is discussed
. "
Daer defined the agenda to be discussed with the President: "Talk about the future, talk about the evolution of the exit from the pandemic and the perspective we have for our country, especially the workers, with
the creation of jobs
. And begin to glimpse the exit after the scourge of the pandemic, we Argentines and the world suffer ".
And he summarized the axes in "work, development, employment and production. And above all, that
the exit from the pandemic
we are seeing with a perspective and with enormous potential, (that) has such an advantage
that generates a definitive takeoff
for our country. "
When consulted by the joint associations, he repeated the union objective.
"We continue with the same commitment that the parity companies are going
to beat the
inflation
index
," Daer said.
"The minimum wage to beat inflation in terms of percentages, will
exceed the inflation that we have this year
. The minimum wage
must be recovered
because it is the way to recover the economy and the country," he added.
However, it celebrated the adjustment in the Income Tax, although it made it subject to economic reality.
"The benefits of lowering the tax burden on workers are always well received. Of course, the balance that must be maintained between fiscal difficulties and the tax burden on workers
are subjects of permanent debate
, especially
in inflationary processes
."
