The strike against several companies affects about 10 000 people and break out April 18 if no agreement is reached before then.
– It feels like it’s very close, it feels like we are very far apart says Union Regional Karin Morberg.
Union negotiator Niklas Hjert says that all the possibilities are exhausted.
– We have negotiated for a long time with ALMEGA and can confirm that all the possibilities are exhausted. It is unreasonable that employees in ALMEGA be significantly worse than other pensions in the private sector, says the Union’s negotiating Niklas Hjert.
He says you signed an agreement with 26 of 32 employer associations in the Swedish business community on flex pension, which means an expansion of occupational pension.
– Pension levels decline otherwise as a result of increasing life expectancy, he says.
– Can not we find a solution at the negotiating table, we have to take industrial Force. We have found a solution with the rest of the business, so it can not be an impossible question.
The Union and the Swedish Engineers want to have the same system across the labor market.
– It has to do with movement on the Swedish labor market. Members should not have to worry about retirement, and therefore it is important that pensions are equal, say Swedish engineers negotiator Camilla Frankelius.
She says the requirement is cost neutral, thus not costly for employers. The idea is to strike the layoffs will have a major impact on the companies that are selected.
– They will be affected much. Our assessment is that workplaces may close, says Frankelius.
echo labor reporter Anders Jelmin does not believe that the news is surprising.
– It has allowed locked in a long between ALMEGA and Unionen and Sveriges engineers. Already in the previous round, this was a big and important issue that did not reach all the way.
He says it is a big notice.
– Compared to the building, it is four times as many workers. But it does not strike yet, there is a notice posted today.
SVT, TeliaSonera, TietoEnator, WSP, Securitas, Atea, Com Hem and Eltel Networks hit by the layoffs.
