Collective bargaining negotiations for the fifth term have been completed at the Artesa Fabric plant, where our union is organized.<\/p>\n

In the new collective bargaining negotiations, which started on November 10, 2021, some items related to financial matters were the cause of dispute, and an agreement could not be reached in the official mediation process.<\/p>\n

After the parties updated their mutual proposals for the last time, our workplace representatives negotiated with our members and determined their final decisions on the dispute issues.<\/p>\n

The parties came together on February 11, 2022 and reached a consensus on financial issues as a result of the evaluations made in line with the suggestions from the workplaces.<\/p>\n

Final corrections were made on the text of the collective agreement, taking into account the previously signed minutes. The prepared collective agreement text was signed with a simple ceremony held on Tuesday, 15.02.2022. On behalf of our union, President Kaz\u0131m Do\u011fan, workplace union chief representative Durmu\u015f Karaca, workplace union representatives Cemil Duran and Bar\u0131\u015f A\u00e7\u0131k, on behalf of Artesa Hande \u015eansal Din\u00e7, G\u00f6khan Kaya and Meliha \u00c7elik attended the ceremony.<\/p>\n

Our members’ purchasing power was preserved in the face of inflation.<\/p>\n

In order to support the purchasing power of our members in the face of rapidly rising inflation at the end of 2021, an extra-contractual wage increase was provided at the Artesa Fabric plant as of October 2021.<\/p>\n

Considering this increase, the salaries of our members have been significantly increased starting from January 2022. In the second and third years of the contract, it was decided to increase the wages above the minimum wage increase rate.<\/p>\n

Bonuses, family allowances and food aids applied in the workplace were also increased at a level that would meet the expectations.<\/p>\n

Added two new benefits<\/p>\n

In the new period, two new social benefits were added to the contract.<\/p>\n
