Dziennik Baltycki newspaper wrote that workers of Tesco on Gdynia( district Chylonia ), Poland , will earn more money due to menacing strike
From April cashiers ( most of them are women ) will get 300 PLN more, and storekeepers - 150 pln on hands.
Additionally they struggled bonds for shopping inside supermarket market of 200 pln value and one more holiday's day.
- We were consistent and that's why we could achieve desired aim - tells leader of Workers of Trade Union ( Związek Zawodowy Pracowników Handlu ) Jan ciborski - " And it's not end.In April we'll sit to other negotiations when we'll demand next rises.
Strike readiness state was on last November. Cashiers and storekeepers, which earned 800 pln per month were demenading rise of 200.At October there should be the strike's referendum, which could end general strike.
Finally during negotiations estabilished that rises will conceded in April this year.
At the end of January unionists met with bosses again and stand by preavious demends and redeem from last year's promises.
-Now both sides are glad.If employees would than in April there will be next negotiations - tells Przemysław Skory , Tesco's press officer.
My solidarity to the workers who tried to get something but I don't see the victory. Just after some more radical unions were created in Tesco and were calling for strike actions to get like 700 zl. raise, the larger and more compromising Solidarity agrees for much smaller raises instead of joining the other unions in a strike. It's not defeat but a small victory for Tesco when for the first time there is really a serious threat that stores in the whole country will go on strike, some union makes a deal (which BTW doesn't apply to all Tesco).
