They recall that the Navarre sector agreement, which affects 5,000 workers , dates back 17 years . They warn that negotiations with the ANET employers are "blocked" and that with this strike day they want to press for meetings to be convened.
"They haven't contacted us, and we don't expect that to happen today either. Let's see if they finally understand that they have to move their positions after the strike this week because that's what the workers are asking for," he said.
Freight transport, logistics and courier are the ones affected. The unions warned that they could affect the big industry, but Gomez admits that companies like Volkswagen had anticipated reserves to avoid shortages.
