Warning strikes in BW: IG Metall demands more money for employees!

IG Metall continues to rage in the metal and electrical industry! On Monday there are massive warning strikes in Straubenhardt and Karlsbad on the agenda. The union called for spectacular actions, including a human chain at 2:00 p.m. at Nvent Schroff in Straubenhardt (Enzkreis). The anger of the workers is bubbling, and IG Metall Pforzheim plans to draw attention to their demands this week in Pforzheim and in the Enzkreis every day with warning strikes and rallies.

The demands are clear and clear: IG Metall demands seven percent more money for employees and higher remuneration for trainees. In contrast, employers have submitted a lean offer of only 3.6 percent in two stages with a term of 27 months. The gap between the expectations of the workers and the employers' proposals could not be greater! A large rally at Mercedes will also take place in Sindelfingen (Böblingen district) on Monday, which underlines the urgency of the Situation.

tariff talks without progress

The tariff discussions in the metal and electrical industry were recently postponed without tangible results. After less than two hours in Böblingen there was no agreement, and a new appointment has not yet been determined. IG Metall district manager Barbara Resch sharply criticized the employers because they went into negotiations without improving their offer. "The companies stand with their backs to the wall," said the negotiator of the Südwestmetall employers' association, Harald Marquardt. IG Metall is determined to increase the pressure and the warning strikes are a clear sign for it!
