Major strike in Germany over working hours
Unions in Germany have gone on strike, demanding a reduction in working hours from 38 to 35 and a salary increase of at least 500 euros. Thousands of flights and train services are expected to be canceled as a result of the strike.
In Germany, two unions have called for strikes over wages and working conditions, leading to expectations that thousands of flights and train services will be canceled again this week.
According to a report by Euronews, airline company Lufthansa estimates that approximately 200 thousand air passengers will be affected by the two-day strike; this means that, as in previous strikes, about one thousand flights per day are expected to be canceled.
CALL FOR A TWO-DAY STRIKE
The German train drivers' union GDL and Verdi have called for strikes on Thursday and Friday.
Negotiations are ongoing for Lufthansa ground staff and train drivers for the German railway operator Deutsche Bahn.
The strike affecting long-distance and regional train services will begin at 02:00 on Thursday and will impact millions of passengers. According to GDL, the strike will continue until 13:00 on Friday.
In freight transport, the strike will begin at 18:00 on Wednesday and will last until 5:00 on Friday morning.
