"Mr President, the daily examples we have seen of exploitation of workers in Portugal and in other European Union countries such as Holland and Romania, where Portuguese people are also involved, demonstrate that the intention, in the name of modernisation of labour law, is to facilitate dismissals by altering notice periods, costs and procedures applicable to individual and collective dismissal, and the very definition of unfair individual dismissal in order to destroy current contractual relationships.
They also want to make alterations to working hours and organisation, with all the consequences in the attack on collective contracting itself and the organisation of the workforce. Placing employers and workers on the same side of the scale of contractual provisions in what is supposedly a modern organisation of labour devalues the need to protect secure employment and the rights of the weakest link in labour relations: the workers who need their jobs and their salaries to survive.
As was demonstrated in Guimarães on the 5 July, the workers are fighting these serious proposals."@en1
