The unions had recently been offered a pay increase of three percent and more concessions. “In one should speak instead to strike first but,” de Maiziere said. “Spare the citizens and seek solutions with us at the negotiating table,” he urged.
In the trade dispute Verdi asks six percent more money in a year of the contract. The employer – the federal government and municipalities – have offered three percent in wages and salaries for two years. The third round of negotiations will take place on 28 and 29 April held in Potsdam.

Since the three percent would be offered in two stages, each of the two increases until every June should be effective, it amounts to two years beginning with only 1.8 percent. Inflation will, however, in this and next year, taken together amount to two percent.
