Job insecurity: enemy of the working class

Young people and immigrants suffer the most from super exploitation without rights.

Precarious work is a growing and daily drama that seriously affects workers, particularly younger ones. To obtain a job, training demands are increasing more and more. For a wide sector of working or poor families this means plainly preventing young people from entering university. And those who still manage to enter, they must overcome a real obstacle race, which includes taking precarious jobs to be able to pay for studies.

It is a vicious circle that puts young people "between a rock and a hard place" Y, not even the title, postgraduate and master's degrees guarantee a decent job. Many of Glovo's workers, Uber Eats or Deliveroo are academically trained people, others are students who make an enormous effort to get ahead, workers and immigrants who need any job to be able to eat.

This is the result of decades of adjustments of the PP to the service of the bosses' demands and of deliveries of the union bureaucrats of UGT and CC.OO. that yielded workers' conquests. Because, working conditions are lousy, low wages and trampled rights. When he assumed the self-defined "Progressive coalition government" "left" Y "The most social in history" made many promises, Nevertheless, does not meet them. One of them was to repeal the labor reform in its entirety, something they now refuse to do with different gadgets and lies. But it's not just this, they want to deepen the precariousness, They are preparing the ground to do it with the excuse of "Try harder to get out of the crisis caused by the Covid-19".

…The Transnational Network of Workers has been created (RTT)

And they also prepare education to orient towards this goal. That's why, that the Council of Ministers of Unidas Podemos approved Royal Decrees referring to the home delivery and collection service, defining and formalizing the ultra precarious work of riders (cyclist, motorcyclist). Under the screen to comply with the regulations of "occupational hazards" are whitewashing employer abuse. Definitely, they want to maintain the labor reform and guarantee exploitation, in the case of riders, with a precarious job qualification. In this regard, The RidersxDerechos platform has already expressed its disagreement in this regard since the rule does not start from enforcing rights.

It is noteworthy that, in response to exploitation and precariousness,  it has been created the Transnational Workers Network (RTT), with state organizations Spanish, France, United Kingdom, Canada and EE. THE. to defend the lxs platform workers and taxi drivers affected by the processes of deregulation that allow the growth of transnational companies through of the figure of false self-employed and tax evasion. They are also taking important steps to to coordinate the fight in Argentina. The organization and coordination between workers precarious is key to fighting harder. So is the unified fight of the entire working class for the recovery of labor rights lost and for the crisis to be paid by the capitalists.
