Since before, Transport – as the only one of 14 LO unions – has stood outside the wage negotiations that ended on Friday. Transport rejects the new wage mark and will continue to negotiate on its own next week.
The industrial agreement means a wage increase of 7.4 percent over two years on Friday – 4.1 percent in the first year and 3.3 percent in the second year. Transport instead wants to see an increase of 5.5 percent this year.
– Year one of this agreement with 4.1 percent may be decent, but year two is far too low. The whole is not good enough for us, he tells Ekot.
