Posted on March 9th, 2010 by admin
With the crisis in the global market was expected to soon feel the impact in the workplace. The techniques of survival and permanence to this crisis.Some trends that mark to withstand this evil way to make adjustments that are usually linked to suspend contracts, freezing vacant, open and fire staff buyout to face recession in economic activity during the first quarter running.
That is the main conclusion that new research showed a SEL Consultores, about the techniques that companies have adopted with respect to employees and their respective contracts.
The report called for the first quarter indicates that the most widespread measure of fit is the suspension of recruitment, which runs in almost two out
of three companies.Here you can see is that one in seven has decided to reduce the allocation to severance pay, and one in ten has launched a voluntary retirement plan, according to the report prepared by the firm headed by economist and sociologist Ernesto Krtiz.
The study leaves the view that the reduction of overtime, is a measure which does not affect the strength but the demand for labor and income of employees, is implemented in more than 50% of firms and in another study 11%. The work was performed between 156 class companies together employing about 180 thousand people.
The dismissal with severance pay, which is an alternative setting for 14% of companies, is also under evaluation by another 3% more and would involve 10% of staff.
SEL warns that in this scenario decreases the bargaining power of unions against companies. In the survey on the wage round of 2009, just completed by SEL Consultores in 120 leading firms in agreement with staff, over 60% believe that unions reduced their demands to preserve jobs, according to the study notes.
To avoid the impending dismissals were trying to take less drastic measures not to let more workers unemployed, as the situation has become very difficult for those without a steady job and must do everything possible to reintegrate in a market increasingly closed and with fewer opportunities.
