Hundreds of retail workers on Monday walked off the job across Spain in a new round of strikes against the fashion giant H&M Group, extending a series of store closures in the middle of the summer sales season.
More than 4,000 Spanish employees at the Swedish multinational's brands including H&M, Other Stories and Cos are seeking pay rises in line with the higher cost of living and are protesting increased workloads linked to layoffs during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Union leader Angeles Rodriguez Bonillo told The Associated Press that workers had lived with "salaries that have been frozen for many, many years" but now have found their situation untenable "with the economic situation and the high cost of living." The price pinch has led to months of disruptive strikes and protests by workers across Europe who are pressing for wages that keep pace with inflation.
