beginnen mit (Tarif-) Verhandlungen zur Konfliktlösung
Das Verb *sue* wird meiner Ansicht nach hier verwendet, um das Einleiten eines relativ strukturierten Verfahrens zu bezeichnen.
Vertreterinnen und Vertreter der Gewerkschaften und des Managements beginnen mit Tarifverhandlungen zur Konfliktlösung.
Erst danach wird die Auseinandersetzung robuster.

Reference:
"sue for"
Alternatively, it could be an attempt to render "sue for", as in "sue for peace", with "for" either accidentally missing or deliberately (but oddly) ellipted.

: Can't post links for multiple reasons, but have you googled the Q? There are two versions of this sentence, one with "sue" and one with "use." It's a simple typo, corroborated by the fact that in the next sentence, it says: "...also use..."
