EFE is a Spanish news agency created in 1939 by Ramón Serrano Súñer and Manuel Aznar Zubigaray while the former was Spain's minister of the press and propaganda.

Employees in Spain are represented by several labor unions. EFE has about 40 employees in the United States who voted on Sept. 29, 2005, to be represented by the News Media Guild. Workers ratified a first labor contract in Dec. 2006, marking the first time the company had ever reached such an agreement outside Spain.
