This is an investiture agreement pact between the leading PSOE and its partner Sumar, with PSOE’s leader Pedro Sanchez being expected to be re-elected prime minister by the Parliament this month, meaning that, while there is a relatively clear agreement that these parties are about to continue leading the government and have the intention of passing this reform, it’ll take a while to be a reality.
Just go for a 4 day workweek at 5 day workweek pay you bitches. Stop pussy-footing around.
He is trying to form a coalition he probably can’t incremental change is better than no change.
Why are they starting with only 30 min per day? That seems like a lot of effort for very little effect.
A noticeable faction of the PSOE doesn’t want to actually pass the reform, which initially had a goal of a 35h workweek. 37,5 is a compromise.

Usually the way it works is that you keep working the same hours, so 40 is the usual, and the difference you get as extra paid vacation days. So 2.5 h/week * 47 weeks = 117.5 hours or a bit over 14 days. That’s almost 3 weeks of extra paid vacation.
That… is actually a really smart way to do itk
Eh, my work week is 37.5 but some days I work longer some days I work less. I keep a tally and in slow months if I’m over I just tell the boss I’m taking a day or two off because it’s slow and I’ve already put in the time. Works out for both of us.
Where and how? If a company is breaking the law that doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t pass reform.
To see if it works? A 6% decrease in working hours may see a noticeable difference with which to do more in the future.

Yeah. Thats the time i “legally” steal everyday.
3 day weekend and 6 hour work day with a mandatory 6 weeks of paid vacation, as the bare minimum
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Spain’s Socialist Party and the far-left group Sumar agreed to cut weekly working hours as part of talks to try to form a coalition government.
The workweek would drop to 37.5 hours from 40 hours at present, according to the plan unveiled by acting Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and Labor Minister Yolanda Diaz in Madrid on Tuesday as they presented the coalition agreement between the premier’s Socialists and Diaz’s Sumar party.
The coalition is still far from forming a government as Sanchez still needs the support of several other parties, most notably two secessionist Catalan groups.
It’s unlikely that a potential new Sanchez government will be able to rubber-stamp a reduction in the workweek, as passing legislation will require backing from several parties, including a few with pro-business ties such as the Basque Nationalist Party.
Diaz, a card-carrying Communist and labor lawyer with strong union ties, has sought to be an advocate for workers’ rights since joining the government in early 2020, when the Socialists formed a coalition to govern with a predecessor party of Sumar.
The plan to shorten the workweek comes as Spain’s unemployment rate stands at the lowest in 15 years, having dropped to 11.6% in the second quarter.
