These actions reflect broader labor unrest in the country, as workers seek to address inflation and rising living costs. Founded on March 19, 2001, Verdi (Vereinte Dienstleistungsgewerkschaft) is a major trade union in Germany, representing a diverse range of service sector employees, including those in healthcare, education, and public services. The union emerged from the merger of five individual unions, aiming to strengthen the collective bargaining power of workers in the service industry.
