Central Sindical Independiente y de Funcionarios (CSIF)

The Central Sindical Independiente y de Funcionarios (CSIF) is a Spanish independent trade union representing civil servants. It is currently newsworthy due to its involvement in several key labor issues. Recently, CSIF representatives participated in negotiations regarding the implementation of a 35-hour work week for civil servants in the central administration, an agreement reached with the government. However, CSIF is also involved in ongoing disputes, as evidenced by its support for strikes by Aemet (State Meteorological Agency) employees due to dissatisfaction with working conditions. Furthermore, CSIF has published a survey highlighting a significant increase in reported aggressions against teachers in public schools, raising concerns about school safety and the need for greater attention to diversity. This demonstrates CSIF's relevance in advocating for improved working conditions and addressing critical issues within the public sector.
