Roeltgen was not re-elected to the Chamber of Employees in the recent social elections, but will continue to lead the trade union until December.
At the press conference following the national committee meeting, Nora Back vowed that she would be available to lead the trade union, provided the congress approve her. The national committee examined the outcome of the social elections in detail, commenting that the OGBL had achieved its expectations. Despite the loss of three seats in the Chamber of Employees, the trade union remains in the majority.
The OGBL knew before the elections that the result would be narrow.
