Almost a hundred unemployed are incorporated into municipal work through an agreement signed between the Guía de Isora City Council, the Canarian Federation of Municipalities (Fecam) and the Canary Islands Service Employment. The total investment is close to one million euros, according to the government led by Josefa Mesa.
Yesterday, 48 unemployed people joined within the framework of this agreement, which is carried out by the Act in your municipality project. It is an initiative focused on undertaking actions to improve and preserve the historical and cultural heritage, as well as the maintenance of infrastructures, public spaces, cleaning and improvement of citizen participation through municipal infrastructures.
At a total cost of 779,429 euros, the Isoran Consistory contributes 482,387 euros, while the Canary Islands Employment Service (SCE) awards a subsidy worth 297,041 euros.
The mayoress of Guía de Isora, Josefa Mesa, defends that Act in your municipality “is an important agreement, for which unemployed people with different profiles of experience and training have been involved.” The councilor values the initiative because for this group of beneficiaries “this job opportunity can mean financial support for a whole year.” To this aspect, the councilor adds that she “can also help improve their access to future jobs” by improving their skills.
Regarding employment, Mesa Mora highlights that last December 44 long-term unemployed people were also incorporated. They did it through the ZRD agreement, for the rehabilitation of main roads and the adaptation of areas for the reactivation of agriculture for three months.
This project, for which the Guía de Isora City Council obtained a grant from the State Public Employment Service (SEPE) of 161,210 euros, is part of the strategy to generate work in the municipality, “increased notably in recent years ».
Through these proposals, work will be carried out on the Chiguergue-Chasogo, Chío-Arguayo and Chío-Vera de Erques trails. Likewise, the tasks will include the surroundings of the Chiguergue, Chío and Vera Erques nuclei. It also highlights “the creation of a carbon sink in the area called Los Meneses, with cleaning and conditioning work on the extension of land owned by the municipality.” A performance valued as “important” by the local authorities.
