The boom in mining do not reach those who work in services, modality that have chosen to most mining companies to hire staff and pay no social benefits that the law requires.
The Minister of Labour and Employment Promotion (PETM), Susana Pinilla Cisneros, through a national media said that only 6% of workers complied with the miners' strike. He added that there was a loss of $ 15 million. Zeno

Two weeks ago, there was a national mining strike that caused great concern to the authorities. However, the demand for workers has not been well taken by most people, it happens that claimed to eliminate the caps on the distribution of productivity. With this, companies would no longer give the annual contribution to the regions from which they extract the mineral. RETIREMENT


not just the low pay they receive affects miners, but that the laws do not favor them. The average life of a miner is 50 years. However, those who are members of the PFAs are required to retire at age 65.
The main disease suffered by miners is silicosis as a result of toxic gases, which directly attack the lungs.

The Minister reported that of the more than eleven thousand inspections this year, about 30% has been made in the mining sector, having covered not only the majors but the job placement and contractors and subcontractors.
That's not enough, so far none has been sanctioned by mining be abusing their workers, also has not done anything to regulate the informal mining where is the bulk of the miners. Has this happened when the mining boom ends, many may be harmed.
