Renault Collective Agreement 2026–2028 Sets Wage and Job Terms

Renault Spain Collective Agreement Sets Three-Year Framework

On August 14, the Spanish Official State Gazette (BOE) published the Renault Spain 2026–2028 collective agreement after approval by the Ministry of Labor. Signed on June 18, 2026, the agreement establishes a minimum salary increase linked to the Consumer Price Index (CPI), providing employees with an adjustment mechanism over the agreement period. The agreement was supported by UGT and CCOO, while SCP, CGT, and CSIF opposed it. It applies from January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2028, covering employment conditions across Renault’s Spanish operations and formalizing the negotiated framework.

Working Hours, Bonuses and Permanent Jobs

The agreement establishes 1,681.75 working hours per year and limits working Saturdays to 10 per shift annually. It also increases demand-change bonuses by 15% and includes the creation of 300 permanent jobs. These provisions combine pay protection, defined working-time limits, additional compensation and employment commitments within the three-year framework. The publication in the BOE formalizes the agreement following its approval process and gives the negotiated terms a clear period of application for employees covered by the arrangement. The measures apply within Spain and form part of the company’s workforce framework.

Five New Vehicles Supported Across Spanish Plants

A major industrial element of the agreement is its support for production of five new vehicles at Renault’s Spanish plants in Valladolid, Palencia, Madrid and Seville. The planned vehicle production is expected to benefit more than 6,000 employees, linking the employment agreement directly with future manufacturing activity in Spain. The commitments therefore extend beyond salary and working-time provisions, connecting workforce stability and permanent employment with the continuation of vehicle production across the company’s Spanish manufacturing footprint. The agreement provides a framework for these manufacturing activities through December 31, 2028.
