There was no new meeting for the negotiations at the moment. It's already possible Thursday. From Monday to Wednesday, warning strikes took place in 220 companies employing 70,000 people. The work is suspended for two to three hours. If there is no significant progress in negotiations for next Monday, then the PRO-GE and GPA-djp unions are threatening to go bankrupt Monday all day – so eight hours to go on strike.
The Metaller KV negotiations were held Tuesday for the steel and foundry extraction industries. However, for reasons of time, negotiations on non-ferrous metals (non-ferrous metals) on Wednesday of tomorrow have been canceled. However, the union only wants to complete small metal areas after an agreement with the metal sector by far the largest. The unions want to "vigorously defend a common KV for each metallurgical sector," they have repeatedly stressed.
"We will start negotiations when the employers are ready to make a substantial offer and we will not be fooled – as in the last forty hours of negotiations," said PRO-GE chief Rainer Wimmer yesterday.
Andritz was attacked on Tuesday in Graz, Liebherr in Nenzing (Vorarlberg), Silhouette in Linz, Boehlerit in Kapfenberg (Styria), Stiwa in Attnang (Upper Austria), Knorr Bremse in Mödling (Lower Austria) and Voestalpine Precision Strip. in Böhlerwer).

The Employer members did not mean to say that they had indicated their intention to recommend to their member companies a "voluntary increase" of 2.7%. Karl Dürtscher, CEO of GPA-djp, recently said that, with such ideas, employers would try to split the workforce.
After all, such a "voluntary increase" has also generated enthusiasm among railway representatives. The boss of the vida, Roman Hebenstreit, said today that employer representatives this year are "exceptionally persistent" in many sectors and that autumn "is not only a little warmer in weather". La vida negotiates 150 collective agreements in the services and traffic sectors. "I can say that we have adapted to difficult conflicts in many areas," said Hebenstreit.
So hot autumn threats, strikes metallurgists and railway workers? What 's new in the minds of employers this year, unions had planned in advance all the maneuvers on strike, because they would oppose it? For that, the highest trade unionist remained evasive. On the one hand, the government has an "additional motivation" to obtain proper financial statements and experts such as the governor of the central bank, Ewald Nowotny, would deem legitimate the demand of 5% of metallurgists, as well as Hebenstreit. However, the employer adopts an "attitude of persistence" and has partially withdrawn from the commitments already made. "Where the responsibility now lies to contribute to climbing, I like to turn around," said Hebenstreit. If there was no result during the eighth round of CT trains on November 21st, the union was ready to "do all the right thing". The support of the employees in the combat measures is enormous, he relied on a recent survey, according to which 85% are ready to take measures of combat.
