Huelga de Alpura se Pospone, Crece Tensión Laboral
The national strike of Alpura, a major dairy company, has been postponed amid rising labor tensions, with significant pressure on the company coming fr om the Confederación Revolucionaria de Obreros y Campesinos (CROC). The union has accused Alpura of enforcing a contentious policy wh ere employees are charged for defective products, known as "cobro de merma". Alpura insists on maintaining quality and cost controls, while employees argue this practice unfairly impacts their wages. The postponed strike provides a temporary reprieve, allowing for additional negotiations. However, if the issue of "cobro de merma" and other labor demands remain unresolved, the threat of a complete halt in operations persists. This conflict highlights the need for constructive dialogue in the food industry to find mutually beneficial solutions, especially since a strike could disrupt raw milk processing and cause economic losses. Stability in large dairy companies like Alpura is essential for maintaining the supply chain and farm profitability. The current situation remains critical for the sustainability of both labor peace and milk production in Mexico.
