70 years of solidarity: Honoring long -standing members of the NGG in Ulm

honorable memberships: a sign of solidarity

The NGG (Trade Union Food Guest Gaststatta) thanked a recent celebration for long-term members. The event paid tribute to the merits of staff members who have contributed to the strengthening of the union for years. The recognition of such memberships is not only a sign of respect, but also of fundamental importance for the future of the unions.

meaning of membership

At the event, Gutmann spoke about the essential role that the members play in the union and beyond. "We always have to inspire people for ourselves," he emphasized, making it clear that unions should not be taken for granted. Rather, they are an expression of solidarity and community lived. The strength of the NGG is based on the cohesion and commitment of its members.

jubilee honored for their commitment

The jubilees were particularly highlighted: Hermann Eberhardt received the honor for 70 years of membership, while Ursula Grüninger and Werner Rieger were honored for 50 years. Other long -standing members also had their say. Gutmann praised the jubilees for their tireless efforts not only in their professional activities, but also in the trade union work for better working and living conditions.

success of the trade union history

The NGG, emphasized Gutmann, can look back on significant success in the tariff work. The introduction of the five-day week and continued wages in the event of illness are just a few examples that reflect the improved conditions for employees. These achievements were fought through the united use and the undeterrable support of the members.

Current challenges and successes

In 2023, the NGG impressively demonstrated how important the union cohesion is in the face of current challenges. The combative attitude of the union was confirmed with over 20,000 new members and almost 500 strikes. The Hans Bockler Foundation even described the NGG as "striker", which underlines its activity in Germany's industrial struggles.

look into the future

at a time when the world of work changes rapidly, the importance of the unions should not be underestimated. Gutmann called for effective support for all employees so that they can live from their income and achieve an appropriate pension. The longstanding members are indispensable supports and role models for future generations of trade unionists.
