According to Comedia, those affected reacted with relief at today's editorial meeting that effective negotiations are now being held instead of non-binding talks. Apparently, Tamedia is prepared to make concessions to the workforce on certain points. Further negotiations are scheduled for Friday. This morning, well over 300 employees of the publishing house also expressed their solidarity with the Facts workforce in an internal petition. Meanwhile, the staff committee of the daily newspaper Bund, which now also belongs to Tamedia, wished the Facts employees "good perseverance and much success" in their fight for a "decent social plan".
