De Unie at Metalektro
Working in the Metal and Electrical Industry: technology with a future
The Metalektro is an important sector in the Netherlands. In this sector, many people work at companies that deal with metal and technology. Think of making machines, chips, car parts and electrotechnical products. Well-known companies in this sector include ASML, Fokker, Philips, NXP, Signify, VDL en Tata Steel.
De Unie is active in the Metalektro. We negotiate good agreements in the collective labor agreement. The Metalektro collective labor agreement applies to many companies in the sector. But for some large companies we conclude separate collective labor agreements. This way employees know exactly where they stand. We also ensure clear agreements about wages, working hours, pension and training.
Do you work in the Metal and Electrical Industry? Then you would like to know what you are entitled to. De Unie helps you with that. We give advice on questions about your work or your collective labor agreement. We can also help you with changes at work, such as reorganization or dismissal.
De Unie is there for you. As a member, you can count on support from experienced specialists. Together we ensure that you can do your work with confidence – now and in the future.
