FRANKFURT (Reuters) - Deutsche Telekom <DTEGn.DE> and labour have reached a 24-month wage agreement that covers 60,000 workers, the Verdi union said on Thursday.

The agreement was reached within a week over digital conferencing to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, and it involves a wage increase of between 4.6% and 5%.
