WHEN YOU’RE SICK

When you’re sick you have to go to your doctor (cat salut) and get a “baja medica” on your first day.
The “baja medica” has to be sent to the company within 72 hours max., either by email or fax.

When you’re ready to go to work you must first go to your doctor again and ask for an “alta”.

The original papers, “baja” and “alta”, has to be handed in to your SV o M on your first working day.

Remember, it is always a good idea to keep your SV o M informed by phone or email.

All calculated on the basis of your last month payment without holidays or sick leaves.

Same job same salary?

According to our opinion employees should receive the same salary for doing the same job.

A short time ago we discovered that in 2 projects the company started to pay a lower salary the newcomers. When this was discovered during a check in the new contracts, we protested to the company. After several communications we received an answer verbally explaining us that the newcomers did not do the same job as their colleagues that has been in the project for some time. Once the newcomers got better and received training in some new products, they would receive the same salary as their “old” colleagues.

We were not fully satisfied with the explanation because the contracts do not say anything about the different products they are supporting. So we asked the company to make this transparent in the contracts. Furthermore we have asked for a written explanation.

And even though the company has told us why there is a different salary in the 2 projects, they still haven’t changed anything in the contracts, so the newcomers are, forever, being paid less than their “old” colleagues.

Are you one of the employees receiving less than your colleagues for the same job? Please let us know.

¿PUEDE LA EMPRESA DESCONTAR DINERO POR EXCESO DE VACACIONES?

Jamás si es la empresa la que ha puesto fin a la relación laboral por despido o finalización de contrato.Tampoco si las vacaciones las disfrutaste cuando se acordó en la empresa o cuando te dijo la empresa.Solamente cabría el descuento si la empresa puede demostrar que tú escogiste tus vacaciones y que además tuviste mala fe al hacerlo, porque conocías tu marcha antes de disfrutar de dichas vacaciones.

"El exceso del período disfrutado de vacaciones, en relación con la parte de anualidad transcurrida hasta el cese contractual,no es un crédito del empresario frente al trabajador, compensable en la liquidación final, ya que el período vacacional anual no tiene límite máximo legal y su disfrute anticipado es una disposición o concesión voluntaria del empresario, sea por acto individual, o por pacto incluido en el Convenio Colectivo" (STSJ Aragón 31/10/07)

Sellbytel interpreting the law their own way

Sellbytel is interpreting the law about protection of personal data

In the project Vaesa-Seat, Sellbytel is obligating the Employees to sign a document permitting Sellbytel and the client to use their images and personal data when they want en where they want. We have to say that a Company cannot obligate any one to sign a document stating that they or the client can use their personal data when and where they want. This is according to our opinion a clear violation of the EU law protecting their citizens.

If they didn’t sign the document, they were told that they couldn’t continue in the project, (read dismissed). 2 Employees signed with objection, and they are now moved from their position.

The document has not previous been presented to us so we did not have the possibility to give our opinion.

The Employees has not been given a copy of the document they signed.

This is not the first time Sellbytel is obligating Employees to sign documents that are, if not, according to our opinion, directly violating the law they are in a gray area, and as usual we are not previous being presented the document.

We are in a crises, but the Companies are increasing their benefits, and now they want Employees working for the minimum salary, to give their accept to use their images in ads that has a value of millions of Euros for the Company.
This is what they call crisis? Pay less and earn more?
