And such requirement does not apply, only , to the irregular distribution that article 34.2 of the ET has foreseen that the employer can use, <strong>when there is no conventional forecast or company agreement<\/strong> in the matter &#8220;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, Blasco Pellicer concludes that the need for the five-day notice that the company has to carry out, as well as the respect for the minimum periods of daily and weekly rest of the workers, is imposed on a<strong>ny irregular distribution of the day regardless.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The ruling annuls an article of the Renfe Convention that reduced them to 48 hours.
