It took effect on 1 May 2025, and will run for 12 months. The core of the agreement is significant wage increases and the introduction of new, uniform pay groups. Instead of the previous multitude of wage and salary groups, there will now be seven clear pay groups that apply in both federal states. Master craftsmen (pay group 2) will earn € 19.30 per hour – an increase of up to 10.2%. Gardeners with training (pay group 4) will receive € 16.00 per hour – an increase of up to 8.4%. Unskilled workers (pay group 5) earn € 13.50 per hour – an increase of up to 3.7%. Also included in the package: Capital-forming benefits will increase to € 22 per month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Read on: \u003Ca contenteditable=\"false\" href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fd85j82c4.r.eu-central-1.awstrack.me\u002FL0\u002Fhttps:%2F%2Fcrm.etui.org%2Fcivicrm%2Fmailing%2Furl%3Fu=86807%26qid=4215173\u002F1\u002F01070196b03706a0-f94a7c4b-4614-497a-bb0f-e1a062be6ba6-000000\u002FkiXmTqkacPUkpWoze7lb1jpXABo=206\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https:\u002F\u002Fd85j82c4.r.eu-central-1.awstrack.me\u002FL0\u002Fhttps:%2F%2Fcrm.etui.org%2Fcivicrm%2Fmailing%2Furl%3Fu=86807%26qid=4215173\u002F1\u002F01070196b03706a0-f94a7c4b-4614-497a-bb0f-e1a062be6ba6-000000\u002FkiXmTqkacPUkpWoze7lb1jpXABo=206\">in German…\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>.
