  "account": "Wage growth in collective bargaining agreements has been just over 3% up to October, significantly below the inflation rate of 4.9%. According to data released by the Ministry of Trabajo, salary evolution this year reflects inflation expectations before prices rose due to the Ormuz crisis. This gap is cited by unions as a reason to support a general strike on Wednesday, which focuses on the housing access crisis and its financial impact.",
  "summary": "The general strike is finding support in the deterioration of purchasing power and in the pressure of housing costs",
