Overview

• The agreement sets the entry wage at €2,600 gross retroactive to August 1, 2025, with staged raises totaling up to 17 percent through December 2026.
• Both NGG and Meat World SE commit to negotiate a binding classification tariff and a framework agreement before the contract term ends.
• It follows weeks of industrial action at the Murr plant, including eleven warning strikes and a 100 percent vote for open-ended action by roughly 120 employees.
• The deal replaces arbitrary pay decisions with clear salary grades and minimum standards at the factory.
• As the first collective agreement in the German Dönerfleisch sector, the pact may drive similar labor accords across the meat-processing industry.
