| Message | The UDRC can support Article 3, but we have some reservations about article one (it can be abused and disrupt free markets) and Article 2 (it is an attack on personal freedoms). |
| Date | 19:15:02, December 12, 2018 CET | From | Partido Obrero de Unificación Comunista | To | Debating the PLS.10.4498.1 |

| Date | 17:11:24, December 14, 2018 CET | From | Unión Demócrata Republicana Confederal | To | Debating the PLS.10.4498.1 |
| Message | Right now, employers can only fire workers if they strike without reasonable reasons. For example, the UDRC would be fine with workers being fire if they strike to prevent the access of women to some positions. Workers are protected if they strike for better labor conditions or other work related issues. |
