The agreements were negotiated following the major social agreement signed last year which allocated more than €1 billion to the sector. A new salary structure has been put in place in the federal health sectors and many health staff have seen a significant increase in pay, some over 10%. However, the employers have since failed to sign agreements covering, among other things, the fixing of work schedules and employment contracts, a commitment to five days of continuous training per year until 2027, the obligation to agree on a joint training plan, and better training of staff representatives to deal with the increasing complexity of regulations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Read on:\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.lacsc.be\u002Fla-csc\u002Fsecteurs\u002Fnon-marchand\u002Factualites\u002F2021\u002F07\u002F13\u002Fles-employeurs-declarent-la-guerre-au-personnel-hospitalier?TSPD_101_R0=08976ae979ab2000028c8c6c8eaf4f73102cbc479a3b36d3f6bffca740f974ea63a8abe6a05322c308c885631e143000d85bfbd1233c31f2f7a8e673330cda08bde5a5012ddf2ed83a757e1e626207b487dd1e951b03b0468ddaf36a98bb86d9\"> in French.\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For more information, please contact Paul de Beer or Oana Ciuca, De Burcht (Scientific Bureau for the Dutch Trade Union Movement) \u003Ca href=\"mailto:p.t.debeer@uva.nl\">p.t.debeer@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fa> or the Head of communications at the ETUI, Mehmet Koksal \u003Ca href=\"mailto:mkoksal@etui.org\">mkoksal@etui.org\u003C\u002Fa>.
