Whereas the current agreements end on March 31, the metalworkers trade union has just quantified its claims : a 7% wage rise. Certain trade unionists of Porsche or DaimlerChrysler asked for a rise of 9.5%. It is the strongest wage claim of IG Metall since 1993. (Ref. 070073)
This week, the commission of negotiation of collective agreements (Tarifkommission) of the the IG Metall section of Bade-Wurtemberg announced that it would request a 6.5 % to 7 % wage increase during the next renegotiation of the “tariff agreements”. Although the other regional sections did not all quantify their positions yet, one can consider that this announcement will apply to all of the sector’s 3.2 million employees.
