Winning blockade. The massive mobilization from unemployment
members of 3 F Bygge, Jord og Miljøarbejdernes Fagforening (BJMF) and of other
LO unions who refused to work or to deliver equipment to the Valby construction
site (Copenhagen), therefore blocking construction since August 29, finally made
employers cave and agree to sign a collective agreement for the approximately
12 Polish employees posted on the site (see
our dispatch No. 090852). After two days of negotiations and mediation from
the sector’s employers’ association, Dansk Byggeri, Tomis Construction
Enterprise, the Polish subcontractor, and Trekroner Penthouses Aps, the Danish promoter,
signed two collective agreements with the BJMF and Byggefagenes Sammenslutning
unions on September 23. they state that the Polish workers will be subject to
Danish rules defined in the sector’s collective agreements.

Union victory. Very satisfied with this agreement,
which includes all the claims unions present the Danish promoter with, Anders
