Training adapted to the real needs of companies was one of the key topics addressed at the meeting. Union representatives presented the current staffing situation and short- to medium-term challenges at Navantia San Fernando and Airbus Cádiz, both centers having a significant impact on industrial employment in the region. The CCOO Cádiz Industry Federation shared its perspective on the sector's evolution and the importance of maintaining productive activity in the province.
The naval and aeronautical industry is a fundamental economic pillar in the Bay of Cádiz, where companies like Navantia and Airbus generate thousands of direct and indirect jobs, in addition to a wide network of auxiliary companies.
