Bimbo continues with the Employment Regulation File (ERE) that implies the dismissal of 86 employees from its distribution and sales network in Spain and, in the third meeting of the negotiating table, has not put any alternative option on the table for the union side. This is what CCOO has conveyed, which describes this stance as "totally arbitrary and disproportionate".
This staff reduction, the fourth undertaken by the multinational in the last six years, focuses on the logistics activity of the work centers in A Coruña, Seville, Málaga, and Murcia.
During the meeting, CCOO rejected the arguments put forward by the company and regretted that no less harmful measure for the staff had been studied. "It carries out its own voluntary project that will destroy the lives of 86 families," denounced the general secretary of CCOO at Bimbo, David García Hermana.
"The organizational cause is self-imposed by Bimbo Donuts Iberia and the productive cause falls by its own weight when the profit obtained with this reorganization is practically nil," added the union representative.
The union insists that Bimbo Donuts Iberia continues to dismantle its distribution and sales structure, recalling that since 2019 it has promoted four nationwide employment regulation files on its logistics centers. The latest to be affected are those in A Coruña, Seville, Málaga, and Murcia, while in previous years the facilities in Bilbao and Zaragoza were already closed after applying two other local adjustments.
According to CCOO, the company now plans to centralize all logistics in the Iberian Peninsula in just two platforms, located in Madrid and Barcelona, which, in the union's opinion, leaves the future viability of the rest of the distribution and sales network that the company maintains in peninsular territory in the air.
