Acciona has been involved in a lot of larger scale infrastructure projects recently, and not all of them have been under the same labour regime.
Some of the things I've heard have been concerning. Stringent rules regarding allocation of workers, labourers taking constant time off, conflict with seniority and inefficient usage of labourers, etc...The NDP's 'Community Benefits Agreement' added all sorts of barriers to hiring including very weird DEI requirements and the requirement that 1/4 of workers be apprentices who are very green.

It has not gone over well with senior trades people who value efficiency as they've constantly been forced to work with inexperienced tradespersons and labourers.
