The Municipal Socialist Group has requested this Thursday Surveillance Commission Procurement that the City consider the termination of the contract it has with the company that currently offers the service of home help.

According to the PSOE, there may be clear evidence of breach of several points of the contract by the contractor, which would support the resolution request its link with the city, while complaint by the Popular Party not it has ensured that the company complied with the conditions set out in the contract, and to further extend situation where it is today.

During the meeting held late this morning it has revealed the relief it is the recent ruling of the Constitutional Court annulling certain assumptions of the Law of Rationality and Sustainability of Local Administration, which has conditioned provision of certain services by municipalities, as in the case of Murcia regarding home help.

Councilwoman Susan Hernandez has revealed in the meeting various aspects of alleged breaches by the company.

"Protecting us in the Law 30/2007 on October 30, points of the contract by the company defaulted home help are sufficient to carry out the study for the termination of the contract".

For two month strike in 2015, the company did not pay the full service, as stated in the contract.

Recall that the strike was prompted by the situation of unpaid wages and helplessness of service workers, a situation that the PP government team has continued to allow too long. "

According to the PSOE, another point that may have violated the company is based on the formation of its subsidiary home help.

The specifications that includes training and information sessions will be held, but the data collected indicate that only a small number of workers was formed.

"In addition, the contract contains a number of improvements in the management control system, which should be in place and functioning at full capacity by May 2015. Currently still can not be used while we encountered during the extension the contract "has affected the PSOE mayor.

Moreover, the contractor should, by contract, conduct a psychophysical track their assistants and provide a statement of 'fit' to provide the service, "but years ago that the workers do not pass or even medical checkups, so that do not know who decides whether a worker is suitable or not to perform the work. This is another breach of contract and also a clear violation of the Law 31/1995 on Prevention of Occupational Risks of November 8 ", he has exposed Hernandez.

"We wonder what improvements have been accredited by the company and if the PP government was concerned to review the performance of the contract before making the decision to extend it. We believe there are more than enough reasons to start a record of termination of the contract the home help service and if the PP government really cares about the conditions under which such an important service to many neighbors, it will be offered, "he concluded.
