Bodegas Barbadillo has
agreed to the workers’ demands and they have today returned to work. This means that Sanlúcar is now
strike free. Members of staff have agreed to work extra shifts to get things
back to normal after a week of strike action. The strike still continues in Jerez,
however, as no agreement has been reached despite two meetings between
the two parties in 24 hours. The unions accuse Fedejerez of intransigence and of
breaking its promise to reinstate workers’ rights as promised five years ago.
They vow to remain on “defensive” strike till Fedejerez agrees to their
demands.
