The capital of Madrid will host two significant union mobilizations this Thursday, highlighting the demands of public education professionals and emergency health services, who are calling for improved working conditions and the fulfillment of agreements.

On one hand, public education teachers, represented by the Central Sindical Independiente y de Funcionarios (CSIF), will gather at 12:00 PM in front of the Ministry of Education, located at Calle Alcalá, 32. The union accuses the department, led by Mercedes Zarzalejo, of failing to comply with labor agreements and neglecting the negotiation calendar.
Key demands from teachers include a reduction in teaching hours, a review of tutoring and department head hours, and an action plan to combat bureaucracy. They also seek salary improvements, such as a capital supplement due to the high cost of living in Madrid and the creation of a sixth six-year pay increment. Additionally, they demand staff reinforcement and transparency in the allocation of support quotas in Primary Education.
Simultaneously, between 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM, the Emergency Health Technicians (TES) of SUMMA 112 will take their protests to the Ministry of Health, located at Calle Aduana, 29. This mobilization, supported by the TESCM union (federated with CSIT Unión Profesional), aims to update their professional status, which they describe as "outdated".
The healthcare collective focuses its demands on three fundamental points: professional reclassification to subgroup C1, in line with their required technical qualification; a review of the specific supplement for the responsibility of their position; and official recognition of the duties they perform in out-of-hospital emergency care, which are considered essential for public safety.
