Netherlands -Metal workers continue with series of strikes -September 24, 2015

After the negotiations stranded for the expiring collective agreements in the metal sectors (both the metal & technical branches with 285,000 workers and the metal electro branches with 140,000 workers) the FNV and CNV trade unions started to mobilise the membership. The trade unions began a series of regional strikes culminating in a national metal march, combined with a one-day strike on 25 September in Rotterdam. Workers at the truck manufacturer DAF announced a strike that will last for three days.
