Unions rebel against Puente for pointing out the Adif controller and demand his dismissal for attacking the "weakest link"

Unanimous union opposition has emerged against Transport Minister Óscar Puente's public blame of a worker for a supposed error before the Urda train accident. Unions argue that attributing individual responsibility is premature as investigations are ongoing. They demand Puente's resignation, claiming he scapegoated the employee and failed to acknowledge systemic issues. Criticism also targets the release of conversations among workers, which unions deem irresponsible and detrimental to the investigation. Calls for an independent inquiry into the accident emphasize the need to examine organizational failures rather than focusing solely on individual actions. Unions stress the importance of addressing working conditions that contribute to stress and potential errors.
