translated from Spanish: Low wages and poor working conditions

Guamúchil, Sinaloa.- In addition to the low wages recorded in most workplaces in the municipality of Salvador Alvarado, working conditions need to be improved in several respects: departure times, benefits and treatment of Workers. One of the most common complaints from employees is that they are required on time but are not respected for their departure times. At this point, we will refer to overtime pay. According to the Secretary of Linking Local Boards and Arbitration, of the Federation of Lawyers of Sinaloa, Jaime España Ortiz, “most companies are failing to meet the payment of overtime, but it is very difficult for them to sue a company for fear of retaliation, such as dismissal,” he said of the prevailing situation in the state.

In the area of benefits, in many workplaces low income is not compensated by support from the company, such as pantry vouchers, support incentives, transport service or motivational dynamics and supports. As for the ill-treatment of the employers, there are no complaints in the coordination of Labour and Social Welfare this year. Employees generally don’t dare report to avoid being fired. Among the most underpaid jobs in the municipality of Salvador Alvarado are first of all those offered in supermarkets, followed by financial and clothing retailers, known as boutiques. These three turns are the ones that have the least interest in the Employment Fairs that have taken place this year, reported the director of Economic Promotion of the City Council, Christian Josué Zavala Obeso.The lowest salary recorded per week is 800 pesos, and among the higher are salary of 5 thousand pesos per month. Taking into account the fortnightly salary of one thousand 600 pesos of a father, discounting the expenditure on two trucks per day, plus the trucks of his children for transfer to schools, we can account for the low income that is survived today.
