Highlights: Outsourced workers cut the tracks of the Roca train at the height of Avellaneda. The protest caused the total interruption of services from Constitución to La Plata. Workers claim the update of "plus and bonuses" is the reason for the protest. The measure is for an indefinite period of time, says a spokesman for the workers, in dialogue with Télam. The protests took place at the stations of Darío Santillán and Maximiliano Kosteki.

For a demonstration of workers who cut the tracks at the height of Avellaneda, this Thursday afternoon the Roca train is cut. The measure is for an indefinite period.

These are outsourced employees of the MCM company, who provide security services on the General Roca Railway. They cut the tracks at the height of the station Darío Santillán and Maximiliano Kosteki (ex Avellaneda).

"Go to permanent plant," reads a flag that protesters unfurled on the tracks.

"The claim is the transfer to permanent plant of almost 300 workers to the company Trenes Argentinos and we still have no answers," said Emanuel Vega, delegate of the outsourced MCM, dedicated to private security in the formations of the railroad.

They also claim the update of "plus and bonuses".

The protest caused the total interruption of services from Constitución to La Plata, via Quilmes; Constitución Glew-Alejandro Korn, Constitución-Ezeiza-Cañuelas and Constitución with Temperley and Bosques, among other destinations.

"At the last negotiation tables we had, they told us that if we didn't cut this off [because of the protests], they were going to denounce us and we were going to be imprisoned. There is no real solution to the basic problem," added a spokesman for the workers, in dialogue with TN.
