Recent warning strikes in the postal service have disrupted operations, leaving hundreds of thousands of letters and packages unprocessed. The union Verdi aims to escalate pressure on Deutsche Post to secure better pay for its workers.

With the upcoming fourth round of negotiations, Verdi is advocating for a 7% wage increase and enhanced vacation benefits. Participants in the strikes have included delivery workers across various cities, highlighting widespread discontent.

In parallel, public transport strikes have also occurred, reflecting broader labor tensions in the region. As negotiations resume, both sides face mounting pressure to reach a satisfactory agreement, as consumers feel the impact of the ongoing disputes.
