The trade union had given MPT an ultimatum to reverse a decision to decrease workers’ wages and refund the difference or face strike action. The dispute came in the wake of an announcement by the public transport provider warning that workers' pay would be docked if they fail to clock all the hours they were contractually obliged to do. An agreement was reached following a lengthy meeting on 30 April. The company committed itself to pay back monies due to engineers on May 10 and to drivers on May 17. Both sides also agreed to start negotiating a new collective agreement with the aim of concluding negotiations in the next two months.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>English: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.timesofmalta.com\u002Farticles\u002Fview\u002F20150501\u002Flocal\u002Fbus-strike-averted-following-agreement.566290\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.timesofmalta.com\u002Farticles\u002Fview\u002F20150501\u002Flocal\u002Fbus-strike-averted … \u003C\u002Fa> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.maltatoday.com.mt\u002Fnews\u002Fnational\u002F52399\u002Fgwu_issues_friday_ultimatum_to_public_transport_operator#.VUNPAvC2puo\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.maltatoday.com.mt\u002Fnews\u002Fnational\u002F52399\u002Fgwu_issues_friday_ultimatum … \u003C\u002Fa> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies (AIAS) \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:cbn-aias@uva.nl\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">cbn-aias@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\"> or the communications officer at the ETUI, Mariya Nikolova \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:mnikolova@etui.org\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">mnikolova@etui.org\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">.
