The Secretary General of UGT-FICA in Cádiz, Manuel Montoro, has confirmed that a preliminary agreement has been reached between employers and unions in relation to the collective agreement in the metal sector, after a nine-day strike with several negotiation meetings in between.

However, in statements to journalists, Montoro explained that this preliminary agreement will now have to be endorsed by the company workers in the workplace. Once approved, it will be when they definitively call off the indefinite strike that began on the 16th.

The content of the preliminary agreement will not be released until this Thursday, once the workers of the companies who have to vote for it have known it.

The president of the Junta de Andalucía, Juanma Moreno, has shown his satisfaction with the pre-agreement reached. “I am glad that companies and workers of the metal have reached an agreement. Dialogue is the way to reach consensus “, he pointed out on his official Twitter account, where he thanked the Andalusian Regional Government technicians” for their mediation and the parties for seeking understanding. “
