30,000 protest against labour reforms on Malaga Streets

THOUSANDS of people marched the Malaga City streets on Sunday as part of a coordinated nation-wide protest against the government’s new labour reforms.

Unions believe the reforms which the government recently approved making it easier and cheaper for employers to sack staff will result on more jobs being lost and not gained as is intended.

Workers unions UGT and CCOO estimated that approximately 30,000 people joined the protest in Malaga.
