The management of the Delhaize brand regrets that the works council on Tuesday did not lead to a breakthrough in the discussions with the unions. The management claims to have wanted to present new guarantees to the employees, but not to have had the time given the early departure of the union representatives. Among the guarantees, the management undertakes to keep all the stores under their own management until they find a buyer, and to keep the 128 stores which are to become franchised open until the end of 2028, whether they have found buyer or not.
The other guarantees concern wages and working conditions, as well as long-term patients and their conditions of recovery. “Delhaize confirms that the health assessment form with medical restrictions for employees or the individual appendix to the employment contract in the context of the gradual return to work will be transferred and will continue to apply. Employees on long-term illness also take part in the transition.”
Finally, management undertakes to transfer the remaining overtime hours by default. They may be paid at the time of the transition at the request of the employee.
Failing to have been able to present these guarantees during the works council, the sign at the Lion sent them to the unions.
The next works council is scheduled for Monday, May 22, the unions have called for a national demonstration for the occasion.
