Dozens of Zara shop assistants protested in Madrid on Thursday outside the global fashion giant's largest store to demand higher pay, and some workers in its home town in northwest Spain went on strike on the eve of its Black Friday sales campaign.
Zara owner Inditex agreed last week to pay a one-off bonus of 1,000 euros to all full-time shop workers in Spain in February, according to unions that are seeking better wages for their members in the face of galloping inflation.
"Inditex is increasing its prices and improving its profits, while employees' wages are lagging behind," said Anibal Maestro, a leader of the CGT union, which called the rally in Madrid.
