On December 20, shortly after Rascal published an update on the situation, CGT Catalunya announced on Bluesky that industrial action at the Acrylicos Vallejo factory had ended with a victory for the workers. Representatives for the strikers successfully negotiated with management, winning increased pay and benefits, a new workplace harassment protocol, and promised occupational safety improvements in line with inspectors’ recommendations.

A pre-agreement has been signed which includes a raise of up to €3000 plus a “social aid package” offering additional payments to workers with children.
