Government officials in Germany reached an agreement with unions for approximately 2.6 million public sector workers after extensive negotiations and strikes. The new deal promises substantial pay raises and additional holidays for employees, providing relief following months of industrial actions. Workers will receive a total pay increase of 5.8 percent over two years, along with increased bonuses for shift work. There is also an option for additional holiday, indicating a shift towards a more flexible work structure.
"The agreement will come as a relief to those who have suffered through several rounds of industrial action since talks began in January."
"From April 1st, public sector employees will all see a three percent increase in their pay packets, with a minimum rise of €110 per month."
