According to Spiegel, the rifts between the social partners run deep ahead of the meeting at the Chancellery. A dispute in the background is weighing on the search for a compromise. The federal government had invited unions and employers to help with planned reforms.

Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU) had already spoken with top representatives of business associations in March. At the time, he urged them to quickly find common ground. Whether this will succeed remains uncertain – the fronts are hardened.
