Every summer season, the island of Ibiza is flooded with luxuryyachts and boats of millionaires and celebrities. Thus, the port of Ibiza is synonymous with luxury and glamour, being one of the most exclusive not only in Spain but also in Europe.
However, the working conditions of the port workers are light years away from that reality, on the verge of subhuman.
This has been reflected to La Voz de Ibiza by a worker of the contracting company Serveo Serviceswhich is in charge of the maintenance of the common areas of the port, carrying out cleaning work both indoors and outdoors, as well as gardening.
The conditions of its employees are appalling.
As reflected in the photos and videos that reached the editorial office of La Voz de Ibiza, they do not have the minimum sanitary conditions, even though the company has won a millionaire contract for more than 1.3 million euros for 12 months. The workers do not have a bathroom to relieve themselves. Nor is there a changing room for them to change.
In addition, they must wash themselves in the open air, with the current plugged in, as shown in the video that accompanies this news item.
In first person
“We don’t even have toilets, we don’t have a locker to change, to wash our hands after working with gardening and waste almost all day. There is a lack of everything there,” said a worker who asked to remain anonymous for fear of losing his job.
Without even a bathroom, they must urinate behind a kind of hut in deplorable conditions where both work elements and some waste pile up.
In that area, weeds grow as a result of urine. 
People do it there behind the hut, which you have already seen the weeds that have grown from people urinating there and are asalvajados, “he adds in his story to La Voz de Ibiza.
In addition, in that hut with the leaky floor is deposited, for example, gasoline from the boats that arrive in Ibiza with waves of immigrants.
“That should be taken to a clean point and they are piling it up there as if it were water,” he said.
Fatal conditions
Working conditions in general are “fatal,” as he describes them. “The company is a pepe, there is no office, there is nothing.
All they have is a secret ship.”
In addition, in these days they have learned almost by chance that there will be union elections, information that had been hidden from the workers. 
Here you supposedly have to ask for a visa, then they pay you for it and you have to fight to ask for a T-shirt or gloves”.
And he summarized: “They look like shacks instead of a work center“.
All in order
Serveo sources have denied to La Voz de Ibiza the bad conditions. “All the people who work in the port, who are from the Serveo team in this case, have facilities, not one or two, but there are multiple booths throughout the premises in different areas.
Even one just four kilometers from the port, where the transfer is guaranteed with cars at its disposal.
In addition, they have detailed that “there are facilities absolutely enabled for any of their needs: they have toilets, changing rooms, showers, air conditioning, water, coffee makers, refrigerators, microwaves, even have up to sunscreen“.
Regarding the hut denounced by the workers, they have argued that “it is intended for tool storage.
Obviously there is nothing there, because it is for tools. It is not a space for personal hygiene“.
Just as the worker has been asked for photos or videos to support his complaint, La Voz de Ibiza made the same request to the company that, at the time of publication of the news, had not been answered.
For their part, from the APB have disengaged, to questions from La Voz de Ibiza, of the situation. “It is an internal issue that the company is responsible for resolving,” said an official spokesman of the entity.
Serveo

Serveo won with a bid of 1,365,014.58 euros. In addition to promoting itself as an environmental steward, the company says that “we work every day to promote equality and safe environments, to hire vulnerable groups, as well as a governance model that integrates our entire supply chain”.
