The seizure was orchestrated by the Federation Por la Reason or Force, which seeks to enter Codelco’s negotiating table with other unions.
The Copper Route, in the O’Higgins region, was taken over this Monday by Codelco contractors.
Specifically, the mobilization was on the part of leaders and contractor workers affiliated with the Federation for Reason or Force.
The road was seized at the Crossroads Maitenes in Machalí, starting at 05:00.
This prevented the buses from passing to the El Teniente Division, especially from shift A. Some of those workers got out to support the occupation.
The contractors ask to be integrated into the ne Codelco is negotiating with other unions to make economic adjustments to the so-called Framework Agreement.
