Austria - Health sector deal extended - April 1, 2010

The 1.5% pay increase agreed for the private health and social care sector has been confirmed and extended to cover employers who are not members of the BAGS employers’ organisation. This means that a further 40,000 employees, on top of the 80,000 employees already covered, will be covered by the agreement which provides for a minimum wage of Euro 1,300 a month (See also this Collective Bargaining Newsletter Year 3 January 2010).
