Predatory Texas Birds

opinion on the decision of the IG Metall union local executive (OV) for examination procedure

Welcoming We note that the IG Metall Berlin-Local Board, in its majority of adopted 3-2 vote the recommendation of the commission and not join the exclusions of Mustafa Efe, Fehmiye Utku Franke and Martin from the IG Metall does not keep fit.

However, we require the two-year bans for the three functions concerned colleagues and complaints for the other 15 candidates of the "alternative - open list" to be wrong. The local council based its decision on the fact that a sanction against "trade-injurious behavior" was necessary. We are of the opinion that if the candidate lists of the "alternative - open list" no union existed injurious behavior. The candidacy of the "alternative - open list" was a result of the unresolved conflict with the council majority and the IG Metall trade union representatives' line (VKL).

How the Local Board is aware, there was the part of the "alternative" in the last three years, many attempts, the substantive discussion on controversial issues within the IG Metall union to lead the plant. Such a discussion was demanded in advance of the candidate lists. This call was not followed up on the part of the council majority and the VKL. The "alternative", the IG Metall local government repeatedly stated the problem in the Mercedes-Benz plant Marienfelde that instead of an open and democratic debate instead of an exclusion of critical IG Metall in the works took place. The local council is not lived up to its responsibilities.

lack solve these problems called for the "alternative" which is why the Local Board to recognize the "alternative-open list" as the second metal-IG list, as is also the case under similar conditions at BMW Spandau. This request was refused.

In an open letter of 19 works from IG Metall Berlin enterprises, including and five members of the local board were raised many questions, which made clear that the backgrounds in the work of Marie Felde are not sufficiently known. Then both several Berlin IG Metall members and the alternative have suggested that there should be an IG Metall internal discussion on the outstanding issues before the local board makes a decision. In the work in a general assembly was called for. These proposals were not addressed. This is for us incomprehensible. Why an internal union debate will go out of the way?

is in the official support of the local board for its decision, it is important to "Never to give the impression that critical opinions were answered by the behavior of the IG Metall local Board of exclusion. "Function ban of two years, however, would mean just that. All three councils would not trust as people can still act as delegates of the IG Metall trade union delegates meeting in Berlin.

This means that they are immediately excluded from important internal union debates and in turn bring their content items are not available. The decline is especially because all three previously a large proportion of this was to gain new members for the IG Metall and colleagues who wanted to escape, again from the IG Metall trade union membership convincing. Moreover, these colleagues important substantive contributions to the Assembly of Delegates. All three were elected from a part of membership in the Mercedes-Benz plant Marienfelde for this function, Mustafa Efe received the most votes in the election. Similarly, the OV-justification "necessary respect for the opinions of the members" emphasized the function is prohibited contravened.

This is even more than the mean duration of the function prohibitions that another candidate in the forthcoming elections of the IG Metall trade union organization in 2012 for these three colleagues would not be possible. In our view, therefore, the decision would be any interference with the democratic decision-making Members of the Mercedes-Benz plant in Berlin Marienfelde mean in the elections. This may not be in the interests of IG Metall members.

We are also surprised that Hakan Göggöz and Lutzenberger, two apparently committed colleagues, who have announced their entry into the IG Metall, have still not received. We demand that the local council coordinates the membership applications of these two gentlemen immediately positive. The decision of the SC is against exclusions, so he may also decide to take two colleagues in the IG Metall union, regardless of a decision of the board.

We are also outraged that the commission in the process Refik Güncan against the list of "fair basis," recommends an exclusion again and ask the local council to reject this recommendation and any sanction imposed on their colleagues.

We urge the Board of IG Metall, to be against a sanction of 19 colleagues. That would be an important step towards more open and democratic debate and a requirement for a dedicated advocacy of IG Metall in the Mercedes-Benz plant in Berlin Marie Felde.

We want colleagues at Daimler and other companies ask you to support this claim and corresponding letter to the IG Metall Board to send.
