Finnish unions will end a historic month-long strike this Monday, April 8, against a proposed labor market reform. Some 7,000 employees in transport, logistics and the electrical sector took part in this strike.
The strike began on March 11 to protest against the right-wing government's plan to relax the labor code. The employers' confederation of industries estimated the cost of the strike at two billion euros. The unions indicated that they were now awaiting a response from the government.
