Some 3,000 workers at Finnish forestry group UPM went on strike on Saturday, shutting plants, the company said on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Three unions representing paper workers, managerial staff and electricians\u00a0had previously warned\u00a0they would strike if a new agreement about wages and working conditions was not reached before the previous agreement ended on Dec. 31.<\/p>\n

The strikes do not concern UPM Plywood and UPM Timber, both of which signed business specific collective agreements with the Industrial Union in December.<\/div>\n

UPM quit collective bargaining a year ago together with other forestry employers, saying the industry wants to improve profitability by seeking alternative ways to agree on wages and working conditions.<\/p>\n

While workers have demanded UPM signs a company-wide labour agreement, the company has pushed for business-specific agreements and signed them with its plywood and timber divisions.<\/p>\n

Workers in UPM's pulp, paper and biofuels businesses have said UPM wants to dictate new conditions instead of negotiating, the three trade unions have stated.<\/p>\n

The strike will end on Jan. 22 unless an agreement is reached before that, the trade unions previously said in separate statements.<\/p>\n

UPM could expect the cost to be at least twice as big as the 30 million euros caused by a previous strike in 2020.<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
