Topic	German union wins strike battle, earning raises, 28-hour weeks for family care
Questionmarktarius 02/06/18 11:33:32 AM #30:	s0nicfan posted... What if they need to downsize but the positions they would normally eliminate are locked into these 2 year agreements? Seems like a company needing cutbacks would ditch the fulltimers first. An employee working 35 hours draws more than one working 28, and a shop that ends up running 28 hours a week has already cut about 20% from its labor costs. But, I don't see where this guarantees a job for two years anyway - just that the job is 28 hours a week for up to two years. <cite>Questionmarktarius posted [p:895570112] in German uni...
