The union has proposed a new hearing date for November 29th, if this does not happen, strikes are planned for December 2nd and 3rd.
The union has softened slightly on the wage demand and is now asking for 8.5 percent plus a minimum, giving low earners a double-digit increase. On average, the increase in salary would be 9.37 percent, according to Fichtinger. This is intended to meet employers’ desire for a “flattening out”. However, a one-time payment is not acceptable.
In any case, there are works meetings on November 24th and 25th. However, if there is no agreement by November 29, “then there will also be warning strikes in retail for the first time,” said Fichtinger. According to Fichtiger, the dates for this have already been set: Friday, December 2nd and the second shopping Saturday, December 3rd.
