"Have all objectives been achieved? No. But something fundamental has been accomplished: breaking the deadlock, reactivating negotiations and demonstrating that Amazon is not immune to collective organization,"
"The strike has shifted the balance of power and sent a clear message to workers in other countries: even within a global multinational, sustained collective action can open real cracks,"
Amazon workers at the RMU1 fulfillment center in Murcia, southeastern Spain, staged two strikes during the 2025 holiday peak and secured a negotiated settlement in late December. The agreement includes a 14 percent wage increase effective January, annual 4 percent increases for the next two years, better Sunday and night shift pay, and more paid time off. The 14 percent rise largely adjusts wages from 2018 tables, but higher base wages will boost pensions and unemployment benefits. Strike organizers say the walkouts reactivated negotiations and demonstrated that coordinated collective action can force concessions from a multinational employer.
