Dutch public transport unions FNV and CNV will announce early next week when bus drivers and train staff in regional transport will strike again. The date will be disclosed at least 48 hours in advance, the unions say.
Workers held their first strike on Wednesday after talks over a new collective labour agreement broke down. The unions have announced plans for one strike day a week until Christmas.
CNV negotiator Niels Rook said the unions were holding back the date to prevent employers from disrupting the action with last-minute rosters for drivers willing to work. The unions said many workers joined Wednesday’s strike and that a large share of buses did not run. Employers’ organisation VWOV put participation at half of the workforce. [1]
