Lekkerland faces escalating calls for talks as Verdi intensifies strike efforts
The ongoing strike by Lekkerland employees in Borna, Germany, is set to continue until Wednesday at 00:00, marking the fourth day of disruptions in the supply chain for the wholesale and retail trade sector.
The strike, which began on Tuesday night, is part of a broader escalation of minimum wage negotiations for the sector. The union Verdi, involved in these negotiations, is not explicitly named as the leader of the strike in Borna, but Michael Aschenbach and Jan Duscheck, two Verdi negotiation skills leaders in related sectors, have recently been in the spotlight.
The main demand of the union in these negotiations is a 13% pay increase. The strike in Borna is receiving support from other unions in the sector, signalling a growing momentum for higher minimum wage.
Despite the disruptions, it's important to note that the strike is not affecting all Lekkerland locations. The next scheduled minimum wage negotiation for the sector is set for next Tuesday, offering a potential resolution to the ongoing standoff.
The strike in Borna marks the first major strike in the ongoing minimum wage negotiations for the wholesale and retail trade sector. The outcome of these negotiations could have significant implications for employees across the sector, as they strive for improved working conditions and fairer minimum wage.
As the situation develops, updates will be provided on the progress of the negotiations and the impact of the strike on Lekkerland and the wider retail industry.
