The FNV Abvakabo and CNV Publieke Zaak unions have agreed a new deal with the MOgroep employers’ organisation in youth care. The agreement covers more than 30,000 employees and includes a wage increase of 1.25% with a one-off payment of € 180. The agreement runs until 1 May 2011 and also includes provisions on training, mobility, social innovation and managing the workload. Employers and unions hope that the measures will lead to improved employability and retention of youth care workers in the industry.
