Just go for a 4 day workweek at 5 day workweek pay you bitches. Stop pussy-footing around.
He is trying to form a coalition he probably can't incremental change is better than no change.
Why are they starting with only 30 min per day? That seems like a lot of effort for very little effect.
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.
To see if it works? A 6% decrease in working hours may see a noticeable difference with which to do more in the future.
For a working culture where being at the office is important, it's an major step. We call it "seat warming", and sometimes it's a big factor to get a promotion. I know people who got promoted by just being at the office to late hours doing nothing. Maybe this step can convince higher ups that just being there warming your seat is worse than having a good work/home balance, and that productivity won't get hurt by leaving a bit early.
Yeah. Thats the time i "legally" steal everyday.
3 day weekend and 6 hour work day with a mandatory 6 weeks of paid vacation, as the bare minimum
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Spain’s Socialist Party and the far-left group Sumar agreed to cut weekly working hours as part of talks to try to form a coalition government.
The workweek would drop to 37.5 hours from 40 hours at present, according to the plan unveiled by acting Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and Labor Minister Yolanda Diaz in Madrid on Tuesday as they presented the coalition agreement between the premier’s Socialists and Diaz’s Sumar party.
The coalition is still far from forming a government as Sanchez still needs the support of several other parties, most notably two secessionist Catalan groups.
It’s unlikely that a potential new Sanchez government will be able to rubber-stamp a reduction in the workweek, as passing legislation will require backing from several parties, including a few with pro-business ties such as the Basque Nationalist Party.
Diaz, a card-carrying Communist and labor lawyer with strong union ties, has sought to be an advocate for workers’ rights since joining the government in early 2020, when the Socialists formed a coalition to govern with a predecessor party of Sumar.
The plan to shorten the workweek comes as Spain’s unemployment rate stands at the lowest in 15 years, having dropped to 11.6% in the second quarter.
The original article contains 239 words, the summary contains 202 words. Saved 15%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Good bot.

-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19

Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
