on Monday, culminating a labor dispute in the middle of Copenhagen with a kæmpestillads was bumped out on the road.
According to preliminary information, it was several hundred stilladsarbejdere, who were dissatisfied with the working conditions on the scaffolding, was the cause of that the scaffold was overthrown during the great jubilation.
the Case has been going on for some time. Stilladsets setup termed as hazardous by the protesters, who have previously notified to the labour inspectorate. On Sunday sought two workers to document the working conditions by making video recordings of the work on the scaffold, but they were according to the trade unions 3F and Dansk El Forbund beaten by a group of men in a white Porsche.
thus, There is verve in the copenhagen stilladsmiljø. Violence, threats, firecrackers, vandalism and, finally, an overturned scaffold, there was a danger to others in the area, is part of the ongoing labour dispute.
the trade Union 3F has already taken some distance from the action Monday, which was also mentioned by the police, who had difficulty to control the many hundreds of stilladsarbejdere. Innocent was threatened and harassed, although the police were strong in numbers to present, inform the. In fact, the police have never seen anything like this, they write on Twitter.
the Workers on the scaffold are being accused of working for a low salary, so the case also contains an element of social dumping.
It is wise and necessary, that 3F takes the focus distance to the action. The trade union is obliged to have the situation under control, otherwise go away their legitimate right to represent the furious stilladsarbejdere.
Denmark has a fagretligt system that handles disputes between employees and employers. If the system is taken over by its own and threats on the open street, it is difficult to maintain the system. Therefore, the matter is also more than a stand-alone stilladskonflikt.
It is just a few months ago that 3F-workers in bagagekontrollen Timebet in Copenhagen Airport harassed an employee in order to get him to become a member of 3F. The threats were recorded and documented the sequence of events which, without doubt, was a direct threat.
At 3F tries to describe stilladsarbejdere and bagagearbejdere as people with a particularly short fuse. It is well known that such groups are more cash and more directly when they are dissatisfied.
It doesn’t change the situation on a scaffold must be assessed in the same way as other working conditions.
Inspectors have been on the stilladspladsen, but could not find the relative, who reasoned that it should be closed. It was stilladsarbejderne, which was trucked in for the big demonstration on Monday morning, obviously not prepared to accept.
Therefore, they took on its own, without the trade union 3F intervened. Or maybe 3F is not.
It is vital for the union that it will not be repeated, because otherwise, this industrial action brought to a clean criminal proceedings.
So has the 3F actually the game itself completely of the track.
