We have heard that the other trade unions have also announced that they will accept the invitation. We will resume consultations with ASML on Tuesday 6 April 2021.
On March 31, 2021, we prepared the meeting together with the executives of De Unie. The conversation on April 6 is not yet exciting, it is a management meeting in which we mainly talk about the process. But it is very pleasant to be able to spar with a group of members and to discuss current developments at ASML with them.

In the fourth update it is indicated that the trade unions have been invited, which also outlines ASML's expectations of this consultation and what the relationship is with the Metalektro collective labor agreement.
