Continuation of the collective labor agreement negotiations
The position of De Unie and the other trade unions is that collective labor agreement negotiations are being held today, Wednesday, May 13, 2026. And that the employer is now making the wage offer that was already on the agenda for the meeting of April 29, 2026. Members will receive a report of the meeting of May 13 in the week of March 18, 2026.

The trade union federation for professionals, the VCP, has launched a petition to protest against this cabinet's austerity plans for social security. De Unie is a member of the VCP. You can support this protest by this online petition to draw.
