The Confederation of Employers of Cuenca (CEOE CEPYME Cuenca) has been advocating for administrative simplification to assist small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The organization argues that bureaucratic procedures divert resources away from employment and expansion, noting that EU-derived policies often fail to account for the limited resources of SMEs, particularly regarding sustainability and reporting compliance. By early November, the organization expressed support for the European Commission’s ‘One Europe, One Market’ roadmap. This framework includes various simplification packages and initiatives aimed at strengthening the single market, reducing energy costs, and improving access to capital. Concurrently, new labor regulations have been implemented in Spain following the transposition of a European Union directive. Employers are now required to provide workers with written information regarding essential contract elements and working conditions before employment begins. In November 2026, CEOE CEPYME Cuenca expanded its support for local businesses by hosting an online seminar titled ‘Circular Economy and Business Management: Keys to the New Packaging Regulations’. Held in collaboration with the Regional Confederation of Employers of Castilla-La Mancha (CECAM), the session aimed to help approximately eighty entrepreneurs navigate compliance requirements that became mandatory in August 2026. The seminar addressed European Regulation 2025/40 and Royal Decree 1055/2022 concerning packaging and packaging waste. Discussions included representatives from Cartón Circular, a Collective System of Extended Producer Responsibility (SCRAP), to clarify the specific responsibilities of manufacturers, importers, distributors, and end users within the supply chain.
