Krokoseum and daycare centres closed on 10 February 2026!

The Francke Foundations are not themselves a bargaining party and have no direct influence on the ongoing negotiations. However, employees can support the union's call. As part of a vibrant democracy, we welcome union involvement and want to help ensure that the participation strike can take place in an orderly and transparent manner.

The Francke Foundations support the call by the ver.di trade union for a participation strike as part of the current collective bargaining negotiations on the TV-L.
For this reason, the Krokoseum and all daycare centres in the Francke Foundations will be closed on Tuesday, 10 February 2026.
