SEL and ETL have not reached agreement in the negotiations concerning new collective agreements for food industry employees. Our aim with the strike is to accelerate the establishment of collective agreements.

A strike is a legal industrial action that cannot result in sanctions for the employee.

The strike concerns all employees. If you do not participate, you are giving your support to the cuts and weakening proposed by employers.

>> Employers want to reduce your salary and weaken other terms of employment

We need every worker to join! This is about your salary and other terms of employment!

We will pay a strike pay of 100 €/day to all SEL members. If you are not yet a SEL member, join now!

>> This is how you apply for SEL’s strike pay

If you have any questions, the SEL shop steward will help you.
