We Respect the German Right to Strike
The right to strike is constitutionally protected under German labor law. Local nationals working for USAG Stuttgart are employed under specific tariff agreements based on German labor law and heavily influenced by the NATO Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA). USAG Stuttgart respects the rights of our local nation workforce to defend their collective interests, and under these agreements, we are obliged to protect these rights.
