Today, October 28, 2024, Palma is facing a public transport strike organized by EMT (Municipal Transport Company) staff. This strike stems from the lack of agreement between EMT management and unions regarding working and salary conditions, which has intensified existing tensions due to resource shortages and demands for improvements in the sector. This service disruption is affecting residents who rely on public transport for their daily commutes in Palma.
During today’s strike, minimum services have been established to partially ensure mobility within the city. However, delays and reduced bus frequency have generated complaints and inconveniences among users, who have turned to applications like MobiPalma to try to obtain updated information on the status of the routes.

The EMT Workers’ Committee and management continue negotiations, though limited progress has been made. Workers express that, despite being employed, many face precarious conditions due to the high cost of living and lack of significant salary increases—a situation exacerbated by the rising cost of living in Mallorca.
For further information on the strike’s progress and the established minimum services, EMT has recommended citizens check their website and social media channels, where real-time updates are provided on available services.
