Nationwide Strike by Money Transport Workers Threatens Cash Supply

The Verdi union calls for a nationwide strike in the cash transport sector, impacting thousands of workers amid ongoing wage negotiations.

  • Approximately 150 to 200 employees in Baden-Württemberg have participated in the strike, potentially disrupting ATM cash availability.
  • The strike is part of a broader effort to pressure employers ahead of the next negotiation round scheduled for November 14.
  • Verdi demands include uniform wages, overtime pay adjustments, and increased holiday entitlements for cash transport workers.
  • Previous strikes in October already caused concerns over cash shortages, prompting some banks to alert their customers.
  • Employers have proposed a new wage offer, but union leaders emphasize that significant progress is still needed.
