Industrial Union and Trade Union Pro Strikes Called Off – YTN Strike Threats Still in Effect

The strikes announced by the Industrial Union and Trade Union Pro have been called off after the parties reached an agreement on a new collective bargaining agreement on February 22 and 23. However, senior salaried employees still threaten to strike on four consecutive Fridays.

The two-week strikes announced by the Industrial Union have been canceled after Technology Industry Employers of Finland and the Industrial Union reached an agreement on a new wage settlement on Saturday, February 22. Several support strikes announced by other trade unions will also end.

Similarly, the strike warnings issued by Trade Union Pro for February 24–28 and March 3–7, as well as the ongoing overtime ban, will be lifted following an agreement between Technology Industry Employers of Finland and Pro on Sunday, February 23.
