Since the results sought by the strike are often not achieved, various types of strikes are innovative, such as: hunger strike, sit-down strike, crucifixion, 8nmergimiento, mouth sewing and others, which workers usually rarely use to exacerbate the conflict and seek a quick solution with the participation of the authorities and other human rights institutions. The workers, from the legal procedure to obtain recognition, certain demands or demands, to obtain better working conditions, this attitude obliges to renegotiate the catalogue of demands. Any act of manifestation of hostility against persons or property is covered by criminal law under section 117 of the TGA. Bolivian President Luis Arce last weekend called on parliament to repeal a law aimed at curbing the strike and protests that have been pressuring him since November 8. The legislature began the session on Monday. The alliance of trade unions and (regional) civil society groups that led the protest reported on Tuesday night, although it tried to maintain the strike after the president announced that it would lift the pressure, although it would continue in the „state of emergency and permanent mobilization.“ The organisers also called for the withdrawal of other laws and the reintroduction of the two-thirds majority for certain parliamentary decisions. Article 114: Once conciliation and conciliation efforts have failed, workers may call strikes and lock out employers in the following circumstances: 3.- In no establishment or establishment may the number of foreign workers exceed 15% of the total number and shall include only technicians. In enterprises or establishments which, because of their nature, are not more dependent on the use of their work, the proportion of women may not exceed 45%. Bolivian nationality is required to serve as director, administrator, adviser and representative in State institutions and among persons whose activities are directly related to the interests of the State, particularly in the economic and financial sphere. Article 121: Violations of the provisions of this Act shall be punishable by fines of one hundred to fifty thousand bolivianos and, in the event of a repeat offence, by doubling the penalty and even closing the establishment; in accordance with the procedure laid down in the Supreme Decree of 18 January of the current year. Several unions involved in the dispute have announced that they will suspend their detention measures once the annulment proceedings are completed.

On the other hand, the cities of Santa Cruz, Potosã and Tarija, the regions where the strike was strongest, tried to obtain other concessions from the government. We could have called off the strike, but the Bolivian people have woken up and are demanding the complete repeal of the legislative package. We must resist, we are playing our last card of freedom and democracy,“ Pro Santa Cruz civic committee© president Rómulo Calvo said at a neighborhood rally over the weekend. The „legislative package“ to which he referred includes the main standards adopted by the legislator during the Arce period, which, according to the opposition, pose a threat to private property, regional autonomy and democratic freedoms. These measures are presented as a last resort, after the failure of the conciliation and arbitration phase. Both protests are explained; the strike for the workers` union and, on the other hand, the lockout of the employer after explicit announcement by the conciliation body and the arbitral tribunal in a report of no agreement. In the event of a strike, it must be declared by 3/4 of the workers in dispute. The original minutes of the meeting at which the strike is decided are sent to the political authority of the department or province.

Within five days in advance. The list of workers who will participate and managers must be accompanied by their addresses. A copy of the minutes is brought to the attention of the Ministry of Labour. The same procedure must be carried out in case of lockout. These two figures are described in the General Labour Code in articles 114 to 119. (Bolivia L. G., 1942) „We, listening to the demands of the Bolivian people, have taken the decision to repeal Law 1386 to pave the way so that there is no better excuse to further mistreat and cripple our damaged ± economy,“ Arce said on television. He explained that this law, which defines Bolivia`s strategy against the legitimization of illicit profits (or money laundering), „worries certain sectors“, especially entrepreneurs in the informal (or black) sector of the economy, traders, transporters and cooperative miners.

He claimed that at the same time, it was being used by opponents to destabilize the government. Article 53: The time limits for the payment of wages may not exceed 15 days for domestic workers and domestic workers. Payments are strictly controlled in legal tender, on a working day and at the workplace, which is prohibited in places of recreation, sale of goods or sale of alcoholic beverages, except in the case of employees of the establishment where the payment is made. § 30.- The employer is obliged to grant the apprentice the hours necessary to attend school. In the event of an accident or illness of the trainee, the trainee must notify his legal representatives, without prejudice to the first medical treatment. Article 67: The employer is required to take all necessary precautions to protect the life, health and morals of his employees. To this end, it shall take measures to prevent accidents at work and occupational diseases in order to ensure the comfort and ventilation of workplaces; install adequate sanitary facilities and, in general, comply with the requirements of the relevant regulations. Each industrial or commercial enterprise has legally approved internal regulations. In cities that maintained the strike until Tuesday night, activity was halted and reactivated sporadically after citizens` committees©ordered that rest and rebuilding of homes be allowed. Ortuã±o believes that „we should not dramatize the situation, which is far from resembling the crisis of 2019“. However, some analysts say the departure of President ± in his first serious confrontation with the forces behind his party two years ago portrays his government as weak©and could lead to triumphant opposition ± betting more on the future. Art.
