No new contract in tourism

142

The talks for the tourism sector are over. There is no agreement. The Economic Chamber Austria says this. 240,000 workers are affected. Employers offered 3 percent more pay. The lowest group gets 3.4 percent more. The union Vida says no. The union thinks the offer is bad.

The union asked its members. Most members said no to the offer. They want more money. Things are getting expensive. This is called inflation. The Economic Chamber does not believe the poll. They say the poll is not safe. Anyone could vote there. Both sides are stubborn now. Employers do not want to pay more.

The old rules still apply. They are valid since May 2025. Firms can pay more money voluntarily. The union threatens with strike actions. A strike means workers stop their work. Eva Eberhart wants new talks. The employers say no to new talks.
