Wage agreement in banking - well great, performance-related pay components. Is Verdi crazy to accept something like that? Does anyone really believe employers will voluntarily increase anything, like this silly "can be increased by 20%" clause for the 13th salary? Sure, it can be, but it won't be. Employers will much rather use the "reduce by 10%" option. As usual, the employee foots the bill. No wonder the employer representatives are talking about a milestone - for them it's cheap in the end result. Only meager increases and the option to reach into employees' pockets...
