SANTO DOMINGO. – The National Business Council (CONEP) warned on Thursday that they cannot raise workers’ wages by 50 percent as the unions demand, although it didn’t specify what percentage it would be willing to accept.
Ex CONEP president Celso Marrazini said a 50 percent wage increase would bring about massive layoffs in the companies, and clarified that managemenet, grouped in COPARDOM, would discusss it with the unions. He said a wage increase that isn’t keeping with the economic crisis won’t be taken into account.
Marranzini spoke after a meeting with National Police chief Rafael Guzmán and the members of the Business Council for Crime Prevention, where business leaders praised the work police are doing to provide security and reduce criminal actions in their environs.
Elena Viyella de Paliza, Salvador Figueroa Sanchez, Whilhelm Brouwer, Nicolas Vargas, Guatavo Tavares, Alejandro Vicini, Jose Ramon Peralta, among others atended the activity.

Hispaniola is no Island for hypocrite foreigner like you Carlos. By the way, I hope you can read to see what the title of the Article says. It says, "A 50% wage hike no way, Dominican businesses say." Why do you think the businesses say no to the wage hike? Because they are used to cheap labor and what an imbecile like you cannot even use logic and common sense to comprehend is that: Regardless of how much you hate Haitians and wish for that wage hike to take place so that Haitians can either not being encouraged to come to DR, if the wake hike goes up, so will the wage for cheap labor which will always be cheaper for those businesses to afford thus their demands for cheap labor will only increase so that they still do not have to pay that wage increase to those asking for it, you pathetic idiot.
