CCOO denounces the Department of Education for excluding unions from the Consultative Commission of the FP Offer

PalmaCCOO has filed an administrative contentious appeal against the composition of the consultative commission of the Vocational Training offer of the Department of Education because it considers that it violates the principle of parity by including employer representation, but excluding the most representative unions. This union has reported that the resolution of the general directorate of Vocational Training and Educational Planning has created a consultative body responsible for advising on the planning and suitability of the Vocational Training offer in the archipelago without guaranteeing the participation of trade union organizations.

According to CCOO, the commission will have two representatives from the most representative business organizations and one from the Chamber of Commerce, but it does not include any union representative. The organization assures that it had repeatedly requested to be part of this body through letters addressed to both the Minister of Education and the general director of Vocational Training, requests that have not been answered.

The union considers that this exclusion constitutes a violation of the legal framework that regulates the institutional participation of social agents and cites, among other regulations, the Constitution, the Organic Law of Union Freedom, and the Vocational Training Law.
