Verdi union called for walkouts at DEUTSCHE BANK AG-REGISTERED’s Postbank unit on April 30 and May 2, affecting 9,000 employees. The labor action in Germany aims to pressure management as negotiations stall over an 8% wage increase demand. Investors face potential service disruptions and rising personnel costs as the bank balances profitability with labor demands.
The union is demanding a minimum monthly pay increase of €300 ($350) for Postbank staff. It also seeks a €200 raise in training allowances to combat rising living costs.
