Overview

  • Around 3,500 CFM employees in roles from catering to facilities services staged 48 days of strikes since March.
  • The agreement establishes a dynamic linkage to public-sector pay scales, ensuring CFM wages adjust automatically as future TVöD rates rise.
  • Verdi will conduct a membership vote by July 4 to ratify the tentative contract.
  • Workers gain an extra day of vacation each half-year through 2029, while broader TVöD working-condition provisions remain unaddressed.
  • Charité is set to incur approximately €200 million in additional wage costs over the next six years under the plan.
