Local media reported that the monthly salaries of every employee of leading Slovakian steel maker US Steel Kosice will go up by EUR 80 from 1 November thanks to a new amendment to the collective agreement signed by representatives of trade unions and the employer on 24 October after 182 days of preparations for an indefinite strike US Steel spokesman Jan Baca said “A one-off bonus amounting to EUR 100 will be paid to all employees as part of the agreement as well. A special bonus for specific professions has been increased to EUR 30 per month. An agreement was also reached concerning the length of the working week. We wanted to achieve more in terms of the work time flexibility. We need to be able to plan work shifts more flexibly. There is a lot of uncertainty and unpredictability, such as with energy and huge price swings. This is all having impacts on the households of our employees, so we're glad that we've managed to agree.”
