Recruiting in China

Nestle workers ended their strike this morning after a deal was reached with management over wages.

Workers said they accepted the company's offer and resumed work before 10am. Under the deal, the commission for drivers and workers delivering milk will increase by 6.5 percent, the workers said. Drivers and workers delivering ice-cream will get HK$46 and HK$36 respectively for every HK$10,000 worth of goods transported.

The workers will hold further discussion with the company over their basic salary by the end of the year. Hans-Peter Edelbluth, Nestle's head of ice-cream and chilled products unit (Greater China) said that the company was aware of inflation and that it would offer a package that would satisfy its employees.
