The fifth round of collective agreement negotiations in the haulage sector ended on 11 April, after employers’ representatives broke off the talks claiming union demands were too rigid and far going. Some small agreements had been reached, including stricter inspection against unequal payment, but no wage offer had yet been made by the employers’ organisation. After meetings with legal counsel, negotiations are expected to be resumed in the beginning of May.
