Full solidarity with Spanish workers on the 11 November general strike! The depth of the housing crisis in Spain, and everywhere in Europe, is weakening the basic right to have a home for many. A decent life cannot happen without a roof. 🔗: link.europa.eu/39h9bW

This morning, we joined trade unions from across Europe outside the European Commission to say it loud and clear: Fix #EUInc! We will not build Europe’s future by making workers poorer and work less secure. We demand action, not promises. Enough is enough!

Nearly one in two Europeans wants action on the cost of living. That's up 6 percentage points since autumn 2025, showing a growing concern about the pressure on households. Workers are paying the price. That has to change! Read the full survey: europa.eu/eurobaromete...

Europe is getting hotter: it's time to act. No worker should have their health or life put at risk simply because of extreme heat on the job. It's time to prepare workplaces for a hotter future and ensure every worker is protected from extreme heat.
