GDL decides to strike in wage dispute with Deutsche Bahn
The German train drivers' union GDL has decided to strike in the wage dispute with Deutsche Bahn. The responsible committees of the union have decided to call for industrial action, a union spokesperson confirmed to the Deutsche Presse-Agentur on Tuesday. Further details on the possible industrial action will be announced separately.
The strike announced by GDL could lead to significant disruptions in railroad traffic, potentially affecting commuters and long-distance travelers alike. Meanwhile, some analysts have suggested that the tariffs on goods transported by rail could be impacted if the strike continues for an extended period.
