Overview
- Employer groups Atra, Asime and Instalectra raised their proposal to a 14.5% wage increase over four years after Tuesday’s 11th round, yet no preagreement was signed.
- The package also ends pay differences between first- and second-grade skilled workers known as Oficiales and brings an eight-hour annual worktime cut forward to 2027.
- CC OO walked out of the talks, CIG called a May 7 stoppage, and CC OO and UGT are weighing a joint indefinite strike if there is no progress on Thursday.
- Union leaders want higher raises, uncapped guarantees that keep pay from losing value to inflation, and clear rules and pay for hazardous, toxic and heat-stress work in shipyards.
- Employers say their plan improves conditions and reconvened talks for Thursday in Vigo, setting up a critical test for a metal and naval supply chain that anchors Galicia’s economy.
