Public a woman, rejected to work as a flight

Alba Nevado Nieto, a young woman who was going to work as a hostess at the International Tourism Fair (Fitur), has denounced through a video posted on her Instagram account what happened to her with the intermediary company that hired her for this event.In the video he counts between tears that took him to work as a hostess during these days and that, after the formation, gave him a uniform of a single size that was not fine.

"I told that problem to the bosses and they told me to happen to me tomorrow, that they could give me a size 42 and that if I would not have to go with a black suit.This morning I have been an hour before when I would have to enter for that to happen...The first thing is that just entering me 'Ah, are you the problem?'As if having a 46 size was a problem...After that they give me a 42 skirt size that I can obviously not do magic, it will not be fine to me.And after that they tell me 'we are going to give you a boy pants because since it is bigger, it is good for you', but it was not fine, "he says.

Nevado explains that after that, the company told him that, feeling it a lot, he had to go home because he cannot work without uniform and that they would pay him the time he has been there before to try the uniforms."I do not want them to treat me as if it were a problem and as if my image was the only thing that served to work in a position for which I know I am valid enough to be, but since I do not fit into the beauty canon than toWe know today, because they don't have a size for me and therefore I can't work ".

"I hadn't felt that bad, like that and thus rejected for a long time (...).It seems so extremely unfair what just happened to me that I don't want anyone to happen (...).My problem is not having a size 46, my problem is that people who offer a job that knows the size I have is not prepared to assume that they have to have a uniform of that size to be able to work.The problem they have, not me.You can not tell me that a 42 is the largest size because there are bodies of all types, all the biggest and smaller.You must be forecast for that, "he explained.

A few hours later, Alba has uploaded another video thanking all the people who have shown their support and to clarify that IFEMA and FITUR have nothing to do with what happened, because neither of the two is the company that had been hired."After uploading this video I have received a call from IFEMA in which I apologized," he said.

Alba has also explained that the company that has done this is called Bestway and that has called him to apologize, to offer him a uniform and to work in another position, although she has rejected it because it does not feel "neither motivated or with enoughSympathy to attend to an audience, which in the end is not to blame for anything, or to be profitable and efficient for them as a company ".

Nevado has told that the Bestway company has asked her to delete the video, but she has decided not to erase it because she "told something that has happened".

The labor lawyer Íñigo Molina explains that the means of production and the work tools, as is the case of the uniform, must provide them with the company and if they do not have it, they should look for it.

"On the other hand, as he said that he was already hired, we would be talking about an infraction of the Law of Sanctions and Infractions of the Social Order (smooth) in terms of employment, specifically article 8.12.Because, although the size is not mentioned as a form of discrimination in said article, it is clearly related to gender, so it could be understood as gender discrimination, for not having a certain size or beauty canon, "he says."In addition, we would have to talk about the dismissal, that in this case I would denounce it to be zero dismissal, precisely because of that discrimination and would ask for compensation for moral damage caused to the person.In the event that it would not have been hired and rejected it in the interview with the size, the same would apply, although it would be an infraction in the field of employment of article 16.1.C ".

Molina remembers that the sanctions in this case would be very serious with fines of up to 187.000 euros, although, in this case, since it is a single person the amount would be less.

From shit Jobs we talked to a spokeswoman for the Bestway company."Azaphath sizes range from 36 to 44 normally, although if the hostesses (we have mixed equipment) have more or less size we make an ad hoc uniform, we never discriminate against size.In this case, what has happened is that the person by whom questions did not facilitate the data of his size in the file that we always ask to complete with different data to have the appropriate uniform to his size, only indicated a height and his standing size.Yesterday, when he gave him his uniform, he didn't try it because he claimed he was in a hurry.Today we have offered a job for which it was not essential to have the corporate uniform, but she has declined our proposal.Throughout our trajectory of more than 20 years, anyone has never been discriminated against by its size, "explains the company.
