Verdi Union Incites One-Day Hospital Strike in Frankfurt (Oder)
Gimme what I deserve, Verdi says!
The feisty Verdi union's blowing the whistle on workers at Frankfurt (Oder) Hospital, urging them to join a one-day walkout. On Wednesday, they're scheduled to down tools from the crack of dawn to the stroke of midnight, according to the union's announcement. A boisterous rally's set for the morning outside the hospital's parking garage.
Looking for a 10% salary hike for the approximately 1,250 non-medical staff and 160 trainees, Verdi's also drumming up demands for a monthly bump of 200 Euros in training remuneration and extra sick days for employees. Their ultimate aim? Equal pay with the public sector's wage agreement.
As things stand, Verdi claims no deals were struck in the initial two chats about wages. The wage talks are due to continue on May 20, 2025.
