CGT strike hits TotalEnergies refineries, service stations in France

CGT union called a strike on October 8 affecting TotalEnergies' 35,000 French employees, primarily targeting refineries, service stations, and Hutchinson factories. The action threatens fuel supply disruptions across France, though immediate impact is uncertain. This is a recurring pattern of labor action at TotalEnergies, but the breadth across refineries and stations could pressure fuel availability and prices.
