Los Angeles Electricians Full On Support for Finnish Electrical Union

Finnish electricians' union to stage walkout in metal industry

18.9.2009 at 16:50

The Finnish Electrical Workers' Union said Friday that about 2,800 electricians working in the metal industry would stage a one-day stoppage on 1 October.

The union added the industrial action's aim was to speed up talks with the Federation of Technology Industries and to force a company to recognise the right to a shop steward.

A pay and conditions agreement between the union and the technology industries expires at the end of the month.

The union has said that talks on a new agreement will not resume until the shop steward issue is resolved.
