The court rule stated that the rates DPG pays are not fair. The judge ordered to increase the rates by 50% (to 0.21 cents per word and €65 per photo) respectively. DPG Media therefore has to pay these two freelancers extra for work they did in 2018. The Dutch Association of Journalists and the Dutch Association of Photojournalists have supported the journalists in this lawsuit. The European Federation of Journalists applauded the courage and persistence of the photojournalists, particularly as this court ruling will have an impact beyond the borders of the Netherlands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Read on:\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Feuropeanjournalists.org\u002Fblog\u002F2019\u002F11\u002F04\u002Fthe-netherlands-landmark-ruling-sets-50-pay-increase-for-photojournalists\u002F\"> in English ...\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For more information, please contact Paul de Beer or Oana Ciuca, De Burcht (Scientific Bureau for the Dutch Trade Union Movement)\u003Ca href=\"mailto:p.t.debeer@uva.nl\"> p.t.debeer@uva.nl \u003C\u002Fa>or the Head of communications at the ETUI, Mehmet Koksal \u003Ca href=\"mailto:mkoksal@etui.org\">mkoksal@etui.org.\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cbr\u002F>For previous full issues of the Collective bargaining newsletter please visit \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.etui.org\u002FE-Newsletters\u002FCollective-bargaining-newsletter\">www.etui.org\u002FE-Newsletters\u002FCollective-bargaining-newsletter\u003C\u002Fa> or consult the archive with all articles in our database at \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.cbnarchive.eu\u002F\">www.cbnarchive.eu.\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cbr\u002F>You may find further information on the ETUI at \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.etui.org\u002F\">www.etui.org.\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>","light",{"text":43,"link":44},"Contact us",{"title":43,"url":45,"description":43,"rel":46,"type":47,"id":48},"\u002Fabout\u002Fcontact","follow","internal",24590,[],[],[],[],[],false,"\u002Fwork\u002Fliving-wages\u002Fcontact-us","\u003Cp>Welcome to WageIndicator.
