Czechia - Pay deal at Škoda Auto - April 30, 2018

Trade unions and management of the country’s biggest car maker, Škoda Auto, have been bargaining on wages since the start of 2018.

Union representatives at Skoda now agreed to a 12% wage rise. The increase covers the period from 1 April 2018 to the end of March 2019.
