Warning strike in Peine: Kitas closed, citizens have to reschedule!

In Peine, a warning strike will take place in the public service on Tuesday, March 4, 2025. Employees of the public sector, which are represented by the Verdi and Komba unions, called for this strike after the second round of negotiations in the collective bargaining ended with no result. The city's daycare centers will remain closed on this day, which has important effects for many parents.

The warning strike has several causes. The Komba union complains that the employers have not submitted an offer to improve the work and income situation in the first round of negotiations. The demands include a salary increase of 8 % or at least 350 euros per month, as well as an increase in remuneration for trainees and interns by 200 euros. In addition, the permanent takeover of trainees is required and a solution for working time regulations and an additional free day for union members.

expected restrictions and communications to the citizens

Due to the upcoming warning strike, restrictions in the operation of the Peine district administration are expected. The city of Peine has already pointed out the citizens that the city's daycare centers and primary schools could also be affected. Citizens are asked to make contact in advance by phone if they want to make use of services or make appointments to avoid possible inconvenience, such as "https://regionalhute.de/peine/steik-im-oeffen-dienst-buerger-muessen-muen-bechnen-peine-1738667379-4CR/" target = "_ blank" rel = "noopener noreferrer"> regionalheute.de reported.

In addition, plans to combat vacancies in the city center were announced by the municipal marketing department. These include a digital settlement platform, through which users can report vacancies and place applications. This shows that the city is still interested in urbanization and economic revitalization.
