A new calculation of driving hours and increased supervision: Moncloa approves measures on the first day of the train drivers' strike

On the first day of the train drivers' strike, the Spanish government approved measures to address the demands of railway workers. The Council of Ministers passed a decree-law that includes a more precise calculation of train drivers' driving hours, increased oversight by the State Railway Safety Agency, and the extension of retirement age reduction coefficients to more railway personnel. These measures aim to strengthen railway safety and social protection for professionals in the sector, in response to the demands of union organizations.
