The Madrid Metro Works Committee has carried out a three-and-a-half-hour metro strike (from 11:00 to 2:30 ), to reinforce the concentration that has been held at the gates of the Congress of Deputies from 11:30 to 1:30 hours, to support the Bill to create a compensation fund for asbestos victims, where the amendments that include access to early retirement for workers who during their working lives have been handling or exposed to this deadly element will be discussed . From the Collective Union of Maquinistas de Metro de Madrid (SCMM) they demand that early access to retirement be promoted immediately for all those workers who have been in contact with this carcinogenic material. They request that it be at the age of 57. The Metro Machinists' Union assures that they will continue with the mobilizations "as many times as necessary until this crime against the health of underground workers is put to an end"
