Airbus Spain workers approve salary deal and end strike

Based on · First reported 4 Oct 2026

Airbus employees in Spain voted to accept a salary agreement that concluded negotiations that began in November 2025 and followed an indefinite strike that started in late August, ending the industrial action across all centres.
The deal keeps the current remote‑work arrangement, allowing staff to work up to 40% of the day or two days per week from home, and extends this option to new hires; Airbus will also identify roles that can have flexible start and end times, except for positions directly linked to production, while a working group will be set up to discuss future absenteeism rules, and the company has withdrawn its lawsuit against the Spanish Supreme Court over the Bradford absenteeism tool with refunds of deducted amounts scheduled for October.
