5 October 2026 · Strike called offWorkers approvethe agreement in a referendum
With a turnout of 87.33%, 76.76% of the votes cast backed the agreement; 20.26% rejected it and 2.98% were abstentions. 13,560 people voted, in person and online, on 30 September and 1 October.
On 5 October, the Strike Committee — made up of CGT, ÚTIL and UGT — formally called off the indefinite strike, after the workforce backed the agreement by a large majority.
STILL TO BE DECIDED
The 4 November trial
The referendum closes the negotiation, but not the legal process. The battle over the industrial legitimacy of the agreement has all but been decided in Airbus's favour; the legal question is a very different one, and it remains open: whether the fundamental right to strike was violated during the process, and whether the company bargained in bad faith.
That is what Spain's National High Court (Audiencia Nacional) hears on 4 November 2026, at the hearing on the substance of CGT's claim. That is where all the attention now lies.
THE RESISTANCE FUND
So that nobody has to give in for lack of money.
The fund pays for what the mobilisation needs and stays open for whatever the workforce decides to defend. It has its own page: what it is, what it spends on, how to contribute and how accounts are rendered.

WHERE THIS FUND COMES FROM
First, understand the dispute.
This fund is born of the dispute of the Airbus Spain workforce. To decide whether to contribute, get to know it: who they are, what they demand and why it has come to this.
Solidarity, independence, transparency and collective control hold the fund up. How they hold up → Governance
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Common questions.
Who runs the fund?
A committee of the workforce itself, under collective control and with traceability of every operation. You can reach it at enfadadosconairbus.contacto@gmail.com and syndicat.util.interempresas@airbus.com.
What is the money spent on?
On what the mobilisation needs and the assembly approves: materials, transport, outreach and logistics. Each campaign publishes its expense breakdown — production of each campaign item, travel to the marches, digital infrastructure — on its page, under Campaigns.
How do I know the money is used well?
Because every published figure comes from the fund account statements, reconciled by the Treasury, and carries its update date: amount raised, expenses, available balance and number of contributions, with the expense breakdown for each campaign. The downloadable financial report will be published in the coming days.
Can I contribute anonymously?
Yes. No names appear on the site: the wall only counts contributions. Your payment details are seen by Stripe or your bank, and by ÚTIL’s Treasury only to reconcile the accounts and, if you ask, to issue you a receipt.
Can I contribute from outside Spain?
Yes. The fund is designed to receive national and international solidarity.
Is it tax-deductible?
Generally not: a contribution to a resistance fund does not usually count as a deductible donation. Check your particular situation before deducting anything.
Why is there a section for major donors and institutions?
Because a large contribution — from another union, an association, a foundation or an individual — usually needs more than a button: documentation on the dispute and on how the fund is governed, a receipt and, sometimes, a conversation with the committee first. That section brings all of this together. Online payments go up to €5,000; above that, contributions are made by bank transfer, which arrives in full. No organisation will be shown as a supporter without its confirmation.
What happens to the fund when the dispute ends?
It does not close. It pays for what the mobilisation needs and stays open to support the workforce in whatever disputes the assembly decides.
