"Short-term "warning strikes" are planned at university hospitals, colleges, daycare centers and schools in several German states on Tuesday. Walkouts are planned across almost the entire country with the sole exception of the central state of Hesse. In the western state of North Rhine-Westphalia, five tunnels will also have to be temporarily closed because employees in the control room of the state-owned operating company also intend to participate in the actions."
"In the western state of North Rhine-Westphalia, five tunnels will also have to be temporarily closed because employees in the control room of the state-owned operating company also intend to participate in the actions. Rallies are planned, with the Verdi union and the German Civil Service Federation (DBB) demanding a 7% pay increase, or at least 300 (about $360) more per month. Negotiations will take place on Wednesday likely for the last time in this round of wage talks."

Rallies are planned as unions demand a 7% pay increase or at least 300 euros more per month. Negotiations are scheduled for Wednesday and are likely to be the final round of talks in this wage negotiation cycle.
