La plantilla de Airbus España mantiene la huelga por 67 votos de diferencia

This month, a vote was held on Airbus Spain's final proposal for employee participation. The plant's team has decided to continue an indefinite strike initiated on August 25th, with 51.23% of the total votes in favor, compared to 48.7% opting to pause the mobilizations, a 67-vote difference. The vote was held after Airbus and several unions reached a principle agreement to unblock the ongoing labor conflict, following mediation by the government during an emergency meeting at the Ministry of Industry and Tourism, involving Industry Minister Jordi Hereu and Airbus CEO Guillaume Faury, among others.

The next step will be to submit this new proposal to a binding referendum for all Airbus Spain employees in September, to give the plant time to understand its contents. Key economic aspects of the new offer include a commitment to pay the real IPC and recover purchasing power by 7.95%, distributed proportionally over four years until 2029, while labor-wise, it maintains the current telework agreement intact.

Unions will hold informational assemblies with their affiliates and the plant's workforce in all locations to explain the proposal's highlights. CCOO has confirmed these sessions will take place on Wednesday and Thursday, while SIPA will meet workers throughout the days. Today's session also saw a meeting between Airbus and the strike committee in Getafe, after the recent complaint from CGT against Industry Minister Jordi Hereu and the company before the Constitutional Court for negotiating outside these representations regarding the pre-agreement reached on Friday, reported by Europa Press.
