Mazatlan, Sinaloa.- The leader of Atamsa, Román Aguayo Hernández, reported for the newspaper EL DEBATE, that due to Covid-19, flights at the airport will decrease. This involves a reduction in work. Vehicles will go down to 25 percent. The vehicular fleet will consist of 10 sedans and seven van-type units, because last Tuesday the concurrency began to drop, and from this Friday, the carriers only had one trip. This represents a crisis, according to Aguayo Hernández.
The aeromexico company, which has up to three frequencies a day, will fall to 2. Canadian airlines only come to pick up tourists visiting the port of Mazatlan, as to this day the borders will be open, Aguayo Hernández highlighted.Uncertainty
The 110 workers operating in Atamsa are uncertain about the lack of employment, as with these tasks, they bring their livelihoods to their families.
Since yesterday (Friday) the lack of services was quite noticeable and we are concerned, said Aguayo Hernández.
The leader of Atamsa explained that in a meeting with the secretary of tourism, in conjunction with the municipality, they reached an agreement to manage support for the workers. At Atamsa they seek an extension in contribution payments. Aguayo Hernández emphasized that Social Security and Infonavit fees are going to have to be postponed because there will be no payments. The carrier leader’s concern is that they have reworked credits for equipment renewal. He said about 20 percent of vehicles have just been renewed. In addition to having commitments to automotive agencies and banking, they have to be met with payments, otherwise interest is increased. Aguayo Hernández hopes that the meeting with the Secretary of Tourism, Escar Pérez Barros, will be next Wednesday, where they expect good news, for the benefit of the workers.
