How do differing tariff models within Lürssen NVL complicate the situation?

NVL's varied tariff structures—some sites operate under the industry-wide metalworkers' agreement, while others, like Wolgast, are under less favorable individual contracts—create uneven compensation and benefits across its workforce. The union seeks to standardize all sites under the better industry-wide agreement to ensure consistent worker protection and compensation in the event of a takeover.
