The CEOE accuses Díaz of making a "political use" of the SMI "on the eve of the elections" and calls for negotiations with the next Government starting in December

Business organizations CEOE and Cepyme expressed their concerns regarding the proposed increase in the minimum wage by Yolanda Díaz, stating it was announced without prior social dialogue. They argue that this decision should be left to the next government after the elections on November 29, emphasizing the need for a more informed approach based on economic indicators. The organizations highlight the potential negative impact on small businesses and families relying on care services, urging for a collaborative dialogue on wage improvements that considers employment and economic competitiveness. They call for negotiations to begin in December with the new government.
