The fifth day of negotiations has begun in the VW collective bargaining round. The talks between the car manufacturer and the IG Metall trade union lasted until midnight on Thursday, according to participants. It was initially unclear when the negotiations in Hanover would continue.
On Thursday evening, IG Metall criticized: "The negotiation process is particularly stuck in the internal processes of the employer side." In principle, both sides are on a constructive path and have reached agreement on a number of points. "But there is still disagreement on some key issues, which could still cause the negotiations to fail."
