Spain’s meat sector will face a 5-Day strike in November

Major labor unions in Spain, like CCOO de Industria and UGT-FICA, have called for a five-day nationwide strike from November 9 to 13, 2026. The strikes could lower pig prices in Spain. It calls on about 126,000 meat sector workers and affects slaughterhouses, cutting plants, and meat processing facilities nationwide. Negotiations are frozen after discussions over collective bargaining terms, wage indexation, and working hours. [
