There will be no cleaning strike on the next holidays in Barcelona. Unions and concessionaire companies have reached an agreement this Saturday that suspends a three-day cleaning strike in Barcelona during the Christmas holidays in Barcelona, UGT sources have confirmed to EFE.
The agreement, which both parties are drafting after a marathon negotiation, will allow the cleaning service in the city not to be suspended until December 25, as the unions had announced.
In the last few hours, and as a preventive measure, Barcelona City Council had even appealed to “citizen collaboration” to, as far as possible, keep waste well separated and inside homes until the protest was over.
