Cantabria: Prysmian cable plant workers call five strike days in May
Last Updated:
The works council of Prysmian's fibre-optic cable plant in Maliaño (Camargo, Cantabria) — a workforce of around 140 — has called five strike days on 13, 19, 21, 26 and 28 May 2026 over the absolute blockage of the collective-agreement negotiation. The previous agreement expired in December 2024; since November 2025 management has refused proposals tying wage rises to the IPC plus one point, instead offering a three-year deal with no rise for 2025 and an IPC-linked increase capped at 1.5% for 2026 and 2027. CSIF Cantabria backs the action, calling management's stance "an unacceptable wage freeze".
