The General Secretariat for Employment and Labor Relations, under the Department of Employment, Trade and Emigration of the Xunta de Galicia, has ordered the deposit and registration in the Registry of collective agreements of the Collective Agreement of Autopistas del Atlántico, Concesionaria Española, S.A. for the years 2025, 2026, 2027, and 2028.

The agreement regulates the labor conditions of the personnel of the concessionaire of several Galician highways, known commercially as Audasa.

The processing began on October 1, 2026, when the request for registration, registered with the agreement code 82000252011993, was received by the unit. The resolution bases the competence of the body on Decree 147/2024, of May 20, regarding the organic structure of the department, and on article 8 of Royal Decree 713/2010, of May 28, on the registration and deposit of collective agreements. The document bears the signature of the general secretary, Susana Pérez Iglesias, and an administrative appeal (recurso de alzada) may be filed against it before the Minister of Employment, Trade and Emigration within one month of publication.

The text was agreed upon by seven representatives of the company and seven members of the Inter-center Committee in legal representation of the staff. Its territorial application is limited to the workplaces that the company has in the provinces of A Coruña and Pontevedra, as well as those that may be created in the future, and the address of the company and the interpretation commission is located at Alfredo Vicenti Street, 15, A Coruña.

Retroactive validity and salary increases

The agreement dates its effects back to January 1, 2025, regardless of the date of publication, and ends on December 31, 2028, with a tacit extension for annual periods if there is no express notice of termination at least three months in advance.

The agreed increases apply to all concepts of the salary structure, except for the productivity supplement:

• Year 2025: Final CPI of 2024 plus an additional 0.45%, effective from January 1, 2025.
• Year 2026: Final CPI of 2025 plus an additional 0.75%.
• Year 2027: Final CPI of 2026 plus an additional 0.75%.
• Year 2028: Final CPI of 2027 plus an additional 1%.
• Cap and floor: maximum revision of 7.5% if the CPI exceeds that figure and a minimum reference of 1% if it falls below that level.

The collective agreement salary is paid in fourteen installments according to the tables in the text’s annex. With 2025 gross amounts and at the general level, a toll collector is positioned at 1,548.37 euros per month (21,677.15 annually), a specialist laborer at 1,637.39 euros, and a higher vocational degree holder at 3,260.46 euros (45,646.43 euros per year). The retention supplement for team leaders and first-class officers is set at 326.39 euros per month.

Working day, vacations and specific groups

The maximum annual working day of effective work is set at 1,712 hours for central offices, operations and toll facilities not subject to shifts in Seixurra and Toural, toll management and communications coordination. It rises to 1,752 hours for personnel in toll facilities subject to shifts, the permanent road brigade and team, toll collectors, shift leaders, user service center operators, and operations electrical workers.

Personnel maintain 30 calendar days of vacation, two days per year for personal matters, and a maximum of sixteen seniority bienniums. The company also commits to increasing the working day from 59% to 70% for fifteen people with part-time contracts, an extension that must occur, at the latest, before December 31, 2028, and to maintain the policy of partial retirements by substitution.

Disappearance of productivity and dialogue framework

The productivity supplement disappears and is replaced by an ad personam salary supplement, reserved for people who were registered at the time of signing: 800 gross euros annually in 2025, 900 in 2026 and 2027, and 1,100 in 2028, the latter being consolidated. The text also incorporates a specific chapter dedicated to the company’s LGBTIQ+ Plan and maintains housing loans, with a maximum global fund of 390,658 euros, and advances on earnings, with a fund of 57,097 euros.

The governance of the agreement falls to a joint parity Mixed Commission, with four members from each party, which will meet at the request of either party and will strive not to exceed four sessions per year. The text adheres to the Galician Interprofessional Agreement on Extrajudicial Procedures for the Resolution of Labor Conflicts (AGA) and classifies personnel into four professional groups: management, technical and administrative, toll, and maintenance.

The relevance of the news lies in the retroactivity: publication in October 2026 activates conditions agreed upon since January 2025, with a direct effect on the payrolls, shifts, and working days of several hundred workers of the A Coruña and Pontevedra highways.
