"

The audiovisual gathered testimonies of those who made their work CATIS quickly became one of the largest jewelry companies in Spain, reaching to employ 154 people and promoting initiatives such as SEBIME, the association still encompasses a large part of an industry that refuses to disappear.

CATIS A sector that for years has been exponent, for their dedication in the production of jewelry, buttons and gifts and the spirit of "big family" that brought together workers. The spirit that takes possession of the video as it did to news that Gemma Andreu published in the "Menorca" in November 2006 during the demolition of the factory premises on Carrer Sant Sebastia.

The CATI is a history of pushing, started by Carter and Timoner and starring a cast exception, humble and abiding workers who are leaving their things if he had to go to the factory, who lived with her and had their children to nursery school and Thrust Peter Pan of action with a rudder-a protocol Carter what he did not like much, it seems, he appealed for unity as a way forward for the sector, engaging in the creation of Sebime APICESA or the Costume Institute of Technology (ITEBE .)

News late today on the closure of Menorca Catisa




Catis: a light at the end of
tunnel
ERE approval allows workers access to unemployment and seek wage guarantee fund to collect what is owed

FAM

The flagship plant closing and fiftieth anniversary of Mao as CATI can never be good news, but that their workers can start typing some money after half a year without charge is at least a small light in this long tunnel.

Approval of Record of Employment Regulation (ERE) presented at the urging of union representatives can, now, the staff of 31 employees apply for unemployment benefits and seek wage guarantee fund (FOGASA) to collect more than six monthly payments due to them or at least, the share of working 150 days and 20 days per year worked for compensation to cover the agency said. The rest will be put, if you can, the company, whose leaders are meeting tomorrow with the workers, yesterday and did not attend the factory, to explain the steps to start collecting unemployment as soon as possible.

bittersweet

As found by the secretary general of the Workers' Commissions (CCOO) on the island, Ramon Carreras, the feelings that live these days the 31 workers are "bittersweet" because that mix in order uncertainty about how much longer will be without charge, on the one hand, and the always dramatic situation that involves the loss of employment, on the other, more pronounced among those older employees faced with only two years of unemployment, labor market low hours. "The trouble broke out in 2000 and there are people who have fought hard during these nine years to save this," said Carreras, who in the coming days will meet with staff and the company to accurately calculate the amounts owed to each worker. What is not covered by the Wage Guarantee Fund (FOGASA), ie, anything greater than 150 days of work, "is a debt to be charged in depending on whether there is money to pay or there is not, "Carreras said.

As of yesterday, the only activity in which the factory will be the five workers who up until Monday morning or, at most, be responsible, completely voluntary, to go finish the orders.

The economic crisis and the explosive 40% fall in turnover CATI it has caused have been the last straw to make the closure of the company into a reality, then neither the loan of 200,000 euros from the Balearic Government last summer or the 500,000 that the company has spent recent years could avoid bankruptcy, first, nor the record of employment regulation, then. The debt of EUR 1.5 million Social Security Finance and inherited from previous management and costly transport which was undertaken with virtually no financial assistance of any kind ultimately have prevented the revival of the company that fifty years after Mao says goodbye .

The financial responsibility for CATI factory in Mahon, Pau Montserrat, son of the former director of the company, said yesterday a feeling of "sadness" at the consummation of the closing of "Mao's flagship factory of more than 50 years of history and not have felt enveloped in the Balearic Government. " "It is clear that if there is no alternative to closing you can not blame the Govern, but I thought I would get involved more in the situation of workers, or out on the more personal," he acknowledged Montserrat, which is scheduled meet the 31 workers will go tomorrow to explain how the process should allow them to start as soon as possible to collect unemployment benefits. "The word that best describes your feelings is to have felt helpless," said the economist in relation to the months leading workers without pay. "Probably not a drop in sales as strong and some institutional support could be weathering the storm, "said Montserrat, which complains that" the Govern decided from the outset not to intervene, because they do not want to consider a strategic enterprise.
