“Totally inadequate” “lean diet”, “provocation”: the IG Metall is about the new offer by the employer to third round of negotiations outraged. Now the peace time is over, it may be on strike -. And the union sends equal a

Signal After fruitless bargaining in the metal and electrical industry, IG Metall has at night nationwide started Friday with strikes.

at midnight had leaked the peace obligation, the strikes are not allowed. In meetings before many factory gates supported strikers the union’s demand for a pay increase of five percent. IG Metall leader Jörg Hofmann called at a rally at the Ford plants in Saarlouis in front of around 3,000 people, the tariff offer employers “lean cuisine” for employees. Profits are obviously important.

“As long as the employer think that you can put off the performance and commitment of the employees with this provocative offer, we will respond with strikes,” Hofmann said. The union hope arises movement at the negotiating table. The third round of negotiations had ended without result on Thursday.

The union called nationwide employees in hundreds factories to temporarily lay down their work on Friday. While probably the greatest action at the Volkswagen subsidiary Audi in Ingolstadt 5,000 employees laid two hours off the job and came to a rally on the factory premises together. With whistles and red cardboard hands, they demanded on the basis of the demand for payment “Give me five!”. Because of the strike were Friday morning around 250 cars by the unions, not the production line.

At midnight saying the NRW Regional head of IG Metall, Knut Giesler, before some 2,100 workers at Ford-Werke and surrounding farms in Cologne. He said: “The offer is still a challenge.” The time for the employer from run. “Who wants a solution before Pentecost, must move,” Giesler. Said

Total Metal-President Rainer Dulger had however stressed that the offer was submitted, “to finally on the structures of a possible solution this week come”. A longer term of the collective agreement procures the company planning security.

Proposed employers have retroactive effect from April income improvements in two stages, which add up over a term of 24 months to a total of 2.1 percent. There is also a one-off payment of 0.3 per cent over twelve months. So they went only slightly beyond their first offer. “Not enough is enough and is no longer, if you re-packaged it,” said Southwest Regional manager Roman Zitzelsberger. IG Metall calls for nationwide 3.8 million employees in the electrical and metal industry 5 percent more money.

New hearings admit it expected in the different tariff districts from the 10th or 11th of May IG said metal Chef Hofmann. In the southwest of the negotiations according Zitzelsberger will probably continue on May 11.

This provides enough time for the union to increase pressure on employers with strikes. It could also be used by day strikes that are possible in the new concept of IG Metall and provide no ballot

Südwestmetall CEO Wolf criticized the actions. “The country is sinking in strikes,” he said also overlooking the work stoppages in the public sector. The shame Germany in the international perception.
