Train drivers and some crew for Germany’s main railway operator will see their working week reduced from 38 hours to 35 by 2029 without having their pay cut, but they will have an option to work longer for more money
FILE - Two train drivers sit in the cockpit of a parked train outside the central train station in Frankfurt, Germany, Tuesday, Jan. 23, 2024. Train drivers and some other train crew for Germany’s main national railway operator will see their working week reduced from 38 hours to 35 by 2029 without having their pay cut, but will have an option to work longer for more money, the two sides say.
Several pay disputes in the German transport sector have coincided recently, and this was the most consistently disruptive. Others have involved local transport workers, ground staff and cabin crew for Lufthansa and airport security staff. The main sticking point was GDL’s demand for working hours to be reduced without a pay cut. Some smaller private operators that operate regional services agreed to the demand, but Deutsche Bahn initially balked.
The agreement also features a pay rise totaling 420 euros per month in two stages and a one-time payment of 2,850 euros to compensate for inflation.
