Switzerland - Pay rise for call centres - December 31, 2022

Following successful wage negotiations between the collective bargaining parties, wages for employees in the call and contact centre industry will be increased in the coming year. The minimum wages in the collective agreement will be increased by 1.5 or 3%, depending on the wage scale and taking into account the latest wage structure survey by the Federal Statistical Office.

The collective agreement for the contact and call centre industry has been generally binding for the approximately 4,400 employees in this segment since 2018.
