Vigo workers protest against Sunday commercial openings
Workers in Vigo have mobilized to protest against the expansion of Sunday and holiday commercial openings. Organized by CCOO, the demonstration included hundreds of participants who argued that Sunday openings infringe upon workers' rights to rest, family life, and work-life balance.
Union leaders criticized the increasing normalization of Sunday trading, particularly during the summer months when sales typically decrease. The protest serves as a precursor to a strike scheduled for August 15, which aims to pressure authorities and employers to revise the current commercial model and protect Sunday rest periods.
