White smoke in the negotiation of the collective agreement for department stores.
After the ultimatum of the unions, which had threatened the employers with the possibility of calling strikes in the companies if they did not agree to their requests, the employers have agreed to approve a wage increase of 17% in 4 years.
An improvement that from the union flank they qualify as "historic".
The table that negotiated the largest collective agreement in the country -affects 230,000 workers throughout Spain from companies such as Carrefour, El Corte Inglés, Alcampo, Leroy Merlin, Ikea or Apple- has reached an agreement this Friday afternoon.
The agreement establishes a salary increase of 17% over the next four years, 14% corresponding to the fixed increase and 3% to a single payment.
In 2023 a fixed 4.5% will be paid, in 2024 a fixed 4.5%, in 2025 a fixed 3% and in 2026 a fixed 2%.
The single payment, for its part, will be paid at the beginning of the years in which the agreement will be in force, corresponding to the previous year, according to sources in the negotiations.
