Unions demand tariff reversal: Osnabrück stands together for rights!

The conference of the DGB member unions, in which 50 delegates came together, focused on important topics and the future orientation in Osnabrück and the surrounding area. Under the direction of Nicole Verlagen, the managing director of the Osnabrück region - Emsland - Grafschaft Bentheim, central priorities were set for the coming years. The chairwoman of the management of the employment agency Osnabrück, Tina Heliosch, also took part in the event in the Rahenkamp house with a greeting. It emphasized the role of the unions as an indispensable partner in the area of ​​labor market conditions and emphasizes the importance of qualifications.

Stefan Kurzel, board member of the DGB, found clear words when he denounced the current political developments. According to him, the threat should not be underestimated by extremely right -wing currents. He urgently warned of the possible negative effects of these tendencies on fair working conditions and democratic principles. The participants of the conference decided to stand behind the demand for a tariff turn and to act hard against attacks on the right to strike and the 8-hour day.

elections and agreement for the rights of employees

Nils Bielkon was elected chairman of the city association, while Lars Völkel takes over the rudder in the district association. In their speeches, both candidates emphasized their strong commitment to the rights of working people. The team is determined to be a voice for the employees and to represent their interests loudly.

In this context, it is important to mention that strikes, especially in areas of general interest such as rail, daycare centers and clinics, can have far -reaching effects on the general public. As is emphasized on the side of the DGB, working people often have to find solutions when facilities such as daycare centers strike or train their business. Such disorders contribute to the fact that important operations in the healthcare system could be endangered. Political votes therefore require longer announcement periods and mandatory arbitration proceedings, but unions see it in a restriction of striking rights that is anchored in the Basic Law.

Legal framework for strikes

As the platform Haufe explains in detail, there are strict legal requirements for a legitimate strike. The strike must be organized by a union and must not break legal obligations such as peace obligations. In addition, he must aim at the targets that can be regulated and the proportionality must be preserved. Especially in the area of ​​general interest, the implementation of emergency services is essential, which the unions also respect. However, this does not mean that the rights of the employees can fall by the wayside.

The current situation once again illustrates how changeable the times for employees and unions are. In view of the challenges of political currents and social tensions, the commitment to the rights of the workers remains central to secure fair and competitive working conditions.
