Extractive, glass and ceramic industries: amendment to regulate breastfeeding leave (Art. 33.2)

The amendment to the XXIII National Collective Agreement for the extractive, glass, and ceramic industries, and the exclusive trade of these materials, has been recorded. The main modification affects Articles 33.2 and 38 to correct errors and regulate the right to one hour of absence for infant care in cases of birth, adoption, or foster care up to nine months (Art. 33.2).

In 3 key points

  1. Right to one hour of absence for infant care up to nine months (Art. 33.2). (art. 33.2)
  2. Possibility of substituting the hour with a half-hour reduction in working hours or accumulation into full working days (Art. 33.2). (art. 33.2)
  3. Limitation of simultaneous exercise due to objective operational reasons, subject to an alternative plan (Art. 33.2). (art. 33.2)

How it affects those involved

For companies in the extraction, glass, and ceramic sectors, the regulation establishes the conditions for exercising the right to breastfeeding leave, allowing it to be split into two periods or substituted by a reduction in working hours or accumulation into full working days (Art. 33.2). Companies may limit the simultaneous exercise of this right by two employees with the same qualifying event only for well-founded and objective operational reasons, in which case an alternative plan must be offered (Art. 33.2).
