Trade union Ver.di announced during a manifestation in Essen that the negative attitude of the employers towards the requested pay increase of 1 euro per hour, combined with an improvement of the training allowance (with a monthly 100 euro), easily can lead to strikes. A bargaining deal for the retail sector in Nord Rhine Westphalia is the reference for the wage of around 700,000 workers, although many workers (60%) are employed by companies that fall outside the scope of the agreement. The trade union, therefore, strives towards a generally binding deal. In Bavaria, with a workforce in retail of some 500,000 workers, the bargaining is also deadlocked. In Hamburg, the union started warn strikes after unsuccessful negotiations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>German: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.welt.de\u002Fregionales\u002Fnrw\u002Farticle164896781\u002FVerdi-droht-mit-Streiks-im-Tarifkonflikt-des-Einzelhandels.html\">https:\u002F\u002Fwww.welt.de\u002Fregionales\u002Fnrw\u002Farticle164896781\u002FVerdi-droht-mit-Streiks ... \u003C\u002Fa>  \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.welt.de\u002Fregionales\u002Fbayern\u002Farticle164873959\u002FUeber-600-Teilnehmer-bei-Aktionstag-und-Warnstreik.html\">https:\u002F\u002Fwww.welt.de\u002Fregionales\u002Fbayern\u002Farticle164873959\u002FUeber-600-Teilnehmer ... \u003C\u002Fa> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.welt.de\u002Fregionales\u002Fhamburg\u002Farticle164827645\u002FVerdi-ruft-zu-Warnstreiks-im-Gross-und-Aussenhandel-auf.html\">https:\u002F\u002Fwww.welt.de\u002Fregionales\u002Fhamburg\u002Farticle164827645\u002FVerdi-ruft-zu-Warnstreiks ... \u003C\u002Fa> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"CM3\">\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, Willy De Backer \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:wdebacker@etui.org\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">wdebacker@etui.org\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">.
