Johannes Katzan, chief negotiator for IG Metall: “Only together can we achieve our goals: increasing real wage growth and ensuring attractive working conditions. I am particularly pleased that we have succeeded in guaranteeing IG Metall members an additional working day off per year from 2024. The parties to the collective agreement are working together to ensure a successful future for our colleagues and the company. And the fact that we have achieved this before Christmas shows the responsible culture of cooperation at IAV.”
