Monte de Piedad national strike

The Challenge

During the collective bargaining agreement review, Nacional Monte de Piedad faced a critical scenario: a scheduled strike notice that threatened to halt operations nationwide. The economic climate—marked by rising inflation and the increased value of gold—drove up union expectations, creating a complex point of tension. The risk was not only labor-related but also operational and social, given the potential impact on more than 2,300 employees and 300 branches.

The Strategic Approach

Applying the principles of Labor Engineering, our firm designed and implemented a strategy focused on:

Multivariable Negotiation:
Reconfiguring the economic proposal by considering external factors such as inflation and market conditions to achieve a viable balance.

Institutional Coordination:
Articulating the involvement of labor authorities and all parties to create the conditions for an agreement.

Conflict Containment:
Managing the negotiation process to prevent escalation into a strike while maintaining operational stability.

The Result

Through strategic and coordinated intervention, decisive results were achieved:

Strike Averted:
The strike notice was successfully deactivated, maintaining operational continuity nationwide.

Balanced Agreement:
Improved labor conditions aligned with the economic reality and the institution's viability.

Institutional Stability:
The organization's operations and social impact were protected, preventing any negative effects on employees and users.
