Spain: unions reject new prerogatives of the National Consultation Committee on Collective Agreements

collective agreements are being negotiated. It also becomes a decision-making body when there is a conflict between the social partners’ representatives for non-implementation of the working conditions provided for in a collective agreement because of economic, technical, organizational or productive reasons. The increasingly common exceptions, resulting from the economic situation in the country, are leading to social disputes. Unions say the Committee’s new role is unconstitutional.
