Carrefour, the distribution company association comprising Ikea and Eroski, is opposed to the reduction in working time.
The National Association of Large Distribution Companies (Anged) has opposed the project of the Minister of Labour, Yolanda Díaz: It doesn't support "change of game rules."
According to the National Association of Large Distribution Companies (ANGED), the reduction in the number of hours sought by the Minister of Employment, Yolanda Díaz, would mean a "cost increase" for companies in the sector. In this way, the structure suggests that, faced with the impossibility of dealing with costs, "bad surprises" may appear: production cuts and, therefore, the disappearance of jobs. The president of the association, Matilda García, spoke intensively: "It means doing a dangerous populist exercise by focusing the whole productivity debate on the number of weekly working hours or days."
The Anged partnership currently consists of 20 companies: El Corte Inglés, Carrefour, Leroy Merlin, Alcampo, Ikea, Tendam, Obramat, Mediamarkt, Conforama, Eroski, C&A, Costco, Apple Retail, Feu Vert, Fnac, Toysrus, Aurgi, Nauroto, Action and Duy. In total, there are 236,000 workers working for these companies.
At the moment, in Hego Euskal Herria and in the Spanish State the weekly schedule is a maximum of 40 hours. By 2025 it is intended to reduce to 37.5 hours -1,712 hours - but by 2024 it will be the year of transition, reducing the weekly working day to 38.5 hours.
