O ministro do Trabalho e Emprego, Luiz Marinho, comentou nesta terça-feira (24) sobre as demissões na General Motors de São José dos Campos, quando os trabalhadores foram surpreendidos, no sábado (21), com comunicados de demissão.
Marinho determinou ao Superintendente Regional do Trabalho em São Paulo, Marcus Pontual, a realização de uma mesa de negociação da GM com Sindicatos de São Paulo e Mogi, São Caetano do Sul e São José dos Campos para tratar das demissões na empresa.
“Determinei ao superintendente que chame, ainda essa semana, uma mesa de negociação entre a empresa e os sindicatos para tratar das demissões que aconteceram nesse final de semana. Inaceitável que a empresa tenha tomado essa medida sem dialogar com os trabalhadores e as trabalhadoras e, para piorar, mande um telegrama em pleno final de semana comunicando dessa absurda decisão”, afirmou.
Por telegrama, a General Motors comunicou aos empregados no final de semana sobre a demissão, a partir do dia 23 de outubro, alegando adequação do quadro de funcionários. A demissão, além de São José, atingiu as plantas de Mogi das Cruzes e São Caetano do Sul. O Sindicato da categoria convocou todos os trabalhadores da GM para uma assembleia, exigindo o cancelamento de todas as demissões e a reintegração de todos os trabalhadores.

The layoffs, which took place on Saturday, October 21, caught employees by surprise, with the company sending out termination notices via telegram.
