The union's central organization, the Union, has announced that it will demand a wage increase of about 4% in the spring fight next year, which is equivalent to a regular salary increase and a "base increase."

This was revealed by Chairman Yoshino of the "Union" at a press conference after the Central Executive Committee.



Among them, Chairman Yoshino said, "Because of the influence of the new coronavirus, business performance is severe in the restaurant industry and accommodation industry, so we should seek wage increases while protecting employment. Improving the treatment of workers is the profit and development of the company. It is important for the labor union to properly request and negotiate, as it will lead to this. "



In addition, he announced that he would secure a regular salary increase according to his age and years of service in the next spring fight, and then request a wage increase of about 2% as an equivalent to the "base increase" to raise the basic salary.



The policy is to request a wage increase of about 4% including the regular salary increase.



According to the Confederation, the request for "base up" will be the 9th consecutive year.



The "Union" will formally decide on next year's spring fighting policy at the Central Committee in December.



The Confederation has set a policy of demanding a wage increase of about 4% in this spring battle, but the average wage increase rate has fallen below 2% for the second consecutive year.
