Bahn is suing the GDL union

Deutsche Bahn no longer wants to accept another strike by the train drivers’ union GDL. The company has now filed a lawsuit.

Deutsche Bahn has filed a lawsuit because of another planned strike by the train drivers’ union GDL. The company announced on Monday that an urgent application for an interim injunction had been submitted to the labor court in Frankfurt am Main.

According to DB Human Resources Director Martin Seiler, the short lead time of just 22 hours in particular is “a sheer imposition”. The wave strikes announced by the GDL are disproportionate. “We are doing everything in the interests of our customers to prevent this strike,” said Seiler.

The train drivers’ union GDL announced another 24-hour strike on Sunday. This should start on Tuesday at 2 a.m. and last until Wednesday at 2 a.m.
