- Improvements in night savings
- Improvements in departures and diets
- Reduction of irregular working hours
- Reduction of annual working hours

The Works Committee reports in the note it has published: "This pact would not have been possible without the commitment and struggle of the 180 workers we have been on strike. It has become clear once again that the workers’ rights are achieved through the labour struggle and that the strike is worthwhile." They are grateful for the support received from the social and political players.
