Unrest in the Venezuelan factories has begun an upward spiral that has affected the productivity of private sector companies.
In 2007, Venezuela witnessed the biggest increase in the legalization of trade unions in the past 15 years, when 32 new trade unions filed their registration with the Ministry of Labor and Social Security.
Throughout the past year, the Ministry managed to authorize a great number of trade unions, especially groups supportive of the ruling party, aimed to create a structure that would facilitate the implementation of ideas that the Executive Branch sought to implement with a proposed reform of the Constitution.
The reduction of working hours and the creation of workers' councils did not take root and the constitutional changes were not approved last year. However, the structure of a trade union resistance movement was formed.
From that moment on, the unrest in the Venezuelan factories has begun an upward spiral that has affected the productivity of private sector companies, said several representatives of industrial businesses.
