Airbus and Spanish unions ATP, CCOO, SIPA, and UGT, representing 88% of workers, have reached a preliminary agreement to end the current labor conflict.

The deal will be put to a binding referendum among all Spanish Airbus employees this September. The agreement was reached after a meeting at the Ministry of Industry and Tourism, attended by Minister Jordi Hereu and Airbus CEO Guillaume Faury.
