Overview

• Intersindical Valenciana, CNT, CGT, and COS formally registered the strike notice on May 12, targeting May 29 for action.
• The strike seeks accountability from the Generalitat Valenciana and employers for failures during the October 2024 DANA flood, which caused over 200 deaths and left 31,400 workers in ERTE schemes.
• Union representatives warn that authorities and employers would likely repeat the same mismanagement if faced with a similar crisis today.
• Major unions CCOO-PV and UGT-PV have not joined the strike, but organizers remain open to their participation before May 29.
• The action follows six prior demonstrations and critiques of inadequate crisis response, labor rights violations, and climate adaptation policies in the Valencian Community.
