He was reelected in 2010 and, in 2016, ceased his duties as secretary-general, leaving active union life.<\/p>\n<p>Over the 50 years of Cape Verdean trade unionism, Ju\u0301lio Ascensa\u0303o Silva highlights \u201cimportant achievements\u201d, namely in the field of labor legislation, social security and union rights.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUNTC-CS made a major contribution to the development of structural laws in the country,\u201d he highlighted, citing labor legislation as an example.<\/p>\n<p>The union funds, according to him, ended up giving rise to the former Institute of Insurance and Social Security (ISPS), which later gave way to the current INPS.<\/p>\n<p>The same source also highlighted the right to strike as one of the achievements of Cape Verdean workers, which, in their words, \u201chappened during the First Republic, therefore, during the single-party regime\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd this recognition [of the strike] came as a result of a series of struggles that took place here in Cape Verde, of which I would highlight the one by seafarers and the threat of a strike by CTT (Cape Verde Post Office) workers, at the time, at a national level\u201d, revealed Ascensa\u0303o Silva, highlighting the strike by workers at the Sa\u0303o Vicente Shipyards, which had an impact not only in the country, but also internationally.<\/p>\n<p>He emphasized that the aforementioned strikes were carried out at a time when this right was not yet recognized in the archipelago.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany people said that the strike was prohibited because there was an omission in the law. Neither the Constitution nor the country\u2019s ordinary law, in fact, had a clear position regarding the strike,\u201d he pointed out, admitting that the UNTC-CS \u201cdared and moved forward\u201d with the strike and, as a first consequence, the Government was forced, at the time, to recognize this right for workers.<\/p>\n<p>Hence, it is understood that the UNTC-CS also contributed to the process of opening the country to democracy, political pluralism and trade union pluralism.<\/p>\n<p>The creation of the minimum wage, unemployment insurance and the participation of unions in the management of INPS were other \u201cimportant achievements\u201d highlighted by Ju\u0301lio Ascensa\u0303o Silva.<\/p>\n<p>While he was in charge of the largest Cape Verdean trade union, he welcomed the fact that training deserved \u201cspecial attention\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He added that the training was and continues to be \u201cstructuring\u201d from the point of view of the development of trade unionism in Cape Verde.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe trained many union cadres, both here in the country and abroad, through the cooperation we had, at the time, with several organizations from different countries\u201d, stated the president of IPRODIAL, adding that the concern was always to transmit to activists and workers \u201cwhat their rights are, but also their duties\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>In his view, one of the functions that unions should assume is to contribute to increasing the productivity of companies.<\/p>\n<p>The increase in productivity, praised Ascensa\u0303o Silva, depends on the notion that workers mustm be aware that \u201cthey are part of the company and that its success is also their success\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>It was from this perspective, he explained, that UNTC-CS saw training as being \u201cfundamental\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRights and duties are two things that must go hand in hand,\u201d said the Inforpress source.<\/p>\n<p>Collective bargaining in Cape Verde was one of the concerns that plagued the former trade unionist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very behind, it is an area in which, in fact, I recognize this, not much progress has been made here in Cape Verde\u201d, he lamented, regarding collective labor negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of workers\u2019 rights and duties, according to Ju\u0301lio Ascensa\u0303o Silva, this \u201cinvolves collective bargaining and social dialogue\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDespite all the effort and training we have undertaken in this area, we are far from where we should be in terms of collective bargaining here in Cape Verde,\u201d lamented Ascensa\u0303o Silva.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will have to promote literacy in terms of social dialogue and trade union freedom, so that people can know that they do, in fact, have rights, but they also have duties,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Cape verde<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Cape verde.
