Italy - Private health deal finally agreed - September 22, 2010

After 56 months, workers in the private health sector are getting a pay increase. The last collective agreement on pay effectively expired at the end of 2005 and the three trade union federations have been trying to negotiate a new agreement with the AIOP employers’ organisation ever since. On average pay will increase by Euro 103 a month as of September 2010. The three federations are pleased that the national agreement has been maintained and that the increase goes some way to recognising the value of workers in the sector.
