Deutsche Post AG said Thursday that it would resume wage
negotiations with Verdi on Friday after the German union said the
majority of its members had voted in favor of an indefinite
strike.
The German union logistics giant said it had presented an offer
to the 160,000 workers in the latest round of negotiations which
was rejected by Verdi after 86% of its members voted against it and
in favor of the strike.
Deutsche Post said it offered an inflation-related bonus of
3,000 euros ($3,163.05) over a two-year period and an increase in
wages and training allowances of EUR340 a month until the end of
2024.
Verdi is demanding a wage increase of 15% with a term of further
negotiations of 12 months, it said.
