Due to the absence of agreement by the majority unions, Michelin’s new collective agreement will only come into force in a limited way at the group’s factory in Vitoria, at the heart of the Basque region. This was what was announced by the CCOO, UGT, and the CSIF on 23 May after what was eighteen months of stalled talks between management and the works council (WC), where the CGT, LAB, ESK, and ELA are the majority unions. The announcement came several days after consultations were organized by the CCOO and UGT union sections on behalf of their members that pushed for the decision to validate the new collective agreement. However against an unusually divisive backdrop, the group of unions holding a majority within the WC continues to resist its validation. The text that will not have automatic overall scope will be able to apply to those union members who support the agreement and to other workers who so request.
