CGTP and UGT unions argue that increasing the minimum wage beyond 970 euros is "possible" and "imperative"

The CGTP and UGT unions are calling for a revision of the current salary agreement, arguing that the 970-euro minimum wage target for 2027 is insufficient given inflation and the cost of living. The CGTP is specifically pushing for a 15% salary increase for all workers, while both unions emphasize that a higher minimum wage is necessary to meet longer-term government goals and improve household purchasing power.
