 
RESOLUTION 
 
1.- To reject any 
attempts to implement systematic import 
policies, as a way of defending national 
labor and industry interests;
 
2.- That before the 
imported beverage enters the country, 
the company must guarantee: 
a) that all seasonal 
workers will be maintained on the job 
for a term of at least three months;
b) that the pending 
issues on the agenda will be resolved, 
namely: permanent contracts, temporary 
contracts, categories, productivity, 
pre-sale (variable), and interior 
distribution agreement;
 
3.- To secure a 
guarantee, together with the Ministries 
of Labor and Economy and the National 
Federation of Beverage Industry Workers 
(FOEB), that the proposed import 
operation is in effect a one-time only 
operation;
 
4.- To ensure that the 
sole importer will be Montevideo 
Refrescos S.R.L. and that the 
destination will be the Carrasco Plant.
 
5.- That workers be 
released from any responsibility for 
inefficiencies that may occur and for 
the consequences thereof, for which the 
company’s management should be held 
responsible; 
 
6.- To declare that 
relations with the union at Montevideo 
Refrescos S.R.L. have been conducted for 
many years through dialogue and 
negotiation between the parties and that 
it was not by any action of the Union 
that such practice was interrupted. 
Consequently, the Union proposes that a 
two-party Monitoring Committee be formed 
to study and find solutions for the 
issues of performance and efficiency, as 
a way of ensuring that the current 
situation will not be repeated in the 
future.
