USS argues that wage increases must include automatic cost‐of‐living adjustments in collective agreements. The demand has already sparked tense reactions from employer associations, especially from the Employers’ Federation FER, which cautions that sweeping wage rises could stress smaller firms in a fragile macro environment. Meanwhile, unions like Unia are gearing up for tough negotiations, especially in industrial and export‐oriented sectors, where pressures from exchange rates and global competition are strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Read on: \u003Ca contenteditable=\"false\" href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fd85j82c4.r.eu-central-1.awstrack.me\u002FL0\u002Fhttps:%2F%2Fcrm.etui.org%2Fcivicrm%2Fmailing%2Furl%3Fu=88526%26qid=4490138\u002F1\u002F01070199de15e015-28d0693f-01d9-4ff7-95a4-c1afc33dccdf-000000\u002FkLNjqK9anx0Rlpd5Wwuy5HKE_Ws=228\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https:\u002F\u002Fd85j82c4.r.eu-central-1.awstrack.me\u002FL0\u002Fhttps:%2F%2Fcrm.etui.org%2Fcivicrm%2Fmailing%2Furl%3Fu=88526%26qid=4490138\u002F1\u002F01070199de15e015-28d0693f-01d9-4ff7-95a4-c1afc33dccdf-000000\u002FkLNjqK9anx0Rlpd5Wwuy5HKE_Ws=228\">in French…\u003C\u002Fa> Read on: \u003Ca contenteditable=\"false\" href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fd85j82c4.r.eu-central-1.awstrack.me\u002FL0\u002Fhttps:%2F%2Fcrm.etui.org%2Fcivicrm%2Fmailing%2Furl%3Fu=88527%26qid=4490138\u002F1\u002F01070199de15e015-28d0693f-01d9-4ff7-95a4-c1afc33dccdf-000000\u002FNky04dvtQ2Egf5QWWFLgPxnZxWE=228\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https:\u002F\u002Fd85j82c4.r.eu-central-1.awstrack.me\u002FL0\u002Fhttps:%2F%2Fcrm.etui.org%2Fcivicrm%2Fmailing%2Furl%3Fu=88527%26qid=4490138\u002F1\u002F01070199de15e015-28d0693f-01d9-4ff7-95a4-c1afc33dccdf-000000\u002FNky04dvtQ2Egf5QWWFLgPxnZxWE=228\">in French (2)…\u003C\u002Fa> Read on: \u003Ca contenteditable=\"false\" href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fd85j82c4.r.eu-central-1.awstrack.me\u002FL0\u002Fhttps:%2F%2Fcrm.etui.org%2Fcivicrm%2Fmailing%2Furl%3Fu=88528%26qid=4490138\u002F1\u002F01070199de15e015-28d0693f-01d9-4ff7-95a4-c1afc33dccdf-000000\u002F4ZyGL3bTgjDE1Iu0q8b6sowQin8=228\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https:\u002F\u002Fd85j82c4.r.eu-central-1.awstrack.me\u002FL0\u002Fhttps:%2F%2Fcrm.etui.org%2Fcivicrm%2Fmailing%2Furl%3Fu=88528%26qid=4490138\u002F1\u002F01070199de15e015-28d0693f-01d9-4ff7-95a4-c1afc33dccdf-000000\u002F4ZyGL3bTgjDE1Iu0q8b6sowQin8=228\">in French (3)…\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>.
