This is an investiture agreement pact between the leading PSOE and its partner Sumar, with PSOE’s leader Pedro Sanchez being expected to be re-elected prime minister by the Parliament this month, meaning that, while there is a relatively clear agreement that these parties are about to continue leading the government and have the intention of passing this reform, it’ll take a while to be a reality.

    A noticeable faction of the PSOE doesn’t want to actually pass the reform, which initially had a goal of a 35h workweek. 37,5 is a compromise.

        Usually the way it works is that you keep working the same hours, so 40 is the usual, and the difference you get as extra paid vacation days. So 2.5 h/week * 47 weeks = 117.5 hours or a bit over 14 days. That’s almost 3 weeks of extra paid vacation.

        Eh, my work week is 37.5 but some days I work longer some days I work less. I keep a tally and in slow months if I’m over I just tell the boss I’m taking a day or two off because it’s slow and I’ve already put in the time. Works out for both of us.

        Where and how? If a company is breaking the law that doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t pass reform.
