Negotiation result collective labor agreement Metal and Technology

De Unie and the other trade unions have reached a negotiation result on a new metal and engineering collective labor agreement. For employees in, among other things, body construction and installation technology, if they agree, months of uncertainty about their employment conditions will come to an end in 2022. Unfortunately, the uncertainty for employees in metalworking has not yet come to an end. The Koninklijke Metaalunie is not (yet) participating. (update April 15, 2022: the Metaalunie has now announced that it will participate in the collective labor agreement result)

Unfortunately, we were unable to realize other points. But these agreements have come about after a months-long campaign. A campaign that we could not have conducted without your support. We therefore assume that you agree with this result.

Metalworking does not participate

Unfortunately, the Koninklijke Metaalunie does not want to participate in this negotiation result. They were not even present at the last meeting. With this, the Koninklijke Metaalunie leaves all 140.000 employees in the metalworking industry out in the cold!

So they let the metalworking employees down! This means even longer for them in terms of uncertainty about their terms of employment. This is at a time when prices are rising and the shortage on the labor market is only getting worse.

The negotiation result does not (yet) apply to them. We hope that the Metaalunie will still agree with the result. If this does not happen, the campaign for a collective labor agreement in metalworking will have to continue. This of course together with you! We will inform you about this at a later date.
