The unionists from Dacia accepted yesterday a gross 300 lei wage raise, and not a 550 lei raise that was initially demanded. The union leaders will announce today, after disscusions with the workers, if they will accept the offer or not.
Yesterday, after three hours of negociations, Dacia's management and the srtiker's representatives reached an agreement. The unionists qualified as "reasonable" the management's proposition to raise the wages with 300 lei and to benefi from the profit, that will give the employees an extra 94 lei per month. Today, the union leaders will present the offer to the workers and will decide whether to stop the two weeks strike or not.
The workers initially asked for a 550 lei raise and refused repeatedly the 250 lei raise made by the management. If the current offer will not please them, the workers will go out in the street, for the second time since the begining of the protests. The rally could be held by 8.000 Dacia unionists and several hundreds from the National Unionist Block and other independent unions.
