Berlin daycare strike: Managing Director ask Verdi for consideration

kitalinungen react to impending failures by warning strikes

In Berlin, the municipal daycare centers face new challenges, since Verdi has announced a new warning strike in daycare companies for the coming week. The lines of daycare centers react to these impending failures and have expressed their concerns in an open letter to Verdi.

Berlin: Tens of thousands of parents affected

The warning strike in the municipal Berlin daycare centers was launched by the Verdi union in order to draw attention to the lack of negotiations on a collective agreement for pedagogical quality and relief for day care centers. This comes from criticism from the finance senator Stefan Evers, who describes the strikes as senseless. The situation leads to new uncertainty among parents and children who are already suffering from the effects of the strike.

The Senate pointed out that around 2,900 daycare centers, often operated by free carriers, exist, exist, and around 165,000 children are looked after. The warning strike mainly affects the 280 urban daycare centers, in which around 7,000 educators and 35,000 children are affected.

Reaction of the KitAlanes

Four of the five daycare companies have contacted Verdi with an open letter and asked for consideration, especially with regard to a planned meeting during the strike in a daycare center in which emergency care is offered. The lines draw attention to the fact that children and employees suffer from the consequences of the strike and that another meeting could tighten the situation. It is emphasized that those in particular are affected for which Verdi is supposed to fight-the daycare children and non-striking employees.

The managing directors emphasize the need for a constructive dialogue between Verdi and the Kita -owned company to maintain the interests of children and parents and to prevent possible failures.
