Potsdam (dpa / bb) - Employees in Brandenburg's local transport also receive a corona bonus.

They receive 600 euros, trainees 225 euros.

The Verdi union drew attention to this on Friday.

The premium is part of a collective agreement that was signed a week ago with the local employers' association.

The approximately 3,000 collective bargaining employees will receive 1.4 percent more money from March and an additional 2 percent a year later.

In March 2023, the current tariff level of the Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe (BVG) will be reached, said Verdi negotiator Jens Gröger.

In September 2023 there will be a further surcharge of 1.5 percent.

A Christmas bonus of 1000 euros from next year as well as improvements to surcharges and vacation pay and more vacation days were also agreed.

The contract runs until the end of 2023.

A corona bonus of 900 euros was agreed on Tuesday for the 14,500 BVG employees.

The collective bargaining for local public transport in Berlin will not continue until spring because of the ongoing epidemic.
