Three-year deal in hospital sector

The three unions in the electricity sector - Filctem-Cgil, Flaei-Cisl and Uiltec-Uil - have signed a new three-year agreement covering 50000 employees. Workers will see a EUR 104 increase in pay, paid in three instalments, topped up with EUR 15 as a productivity bonus and EUR 5 related to welfare benefits. There will also be a EUR 100 lump sum paid this year. The agreement includes initiatives to improve health and safety, to ensure contractors are covered by the agreement along with several other measures benefiting working parents and women workers.

Unions have negotiated a three-year agreement for the 160,000 workers in the disabled care sector. There will be pay increases of 1.25% (1 October 2011), 1.5% (1 July 2012) and 2.0% (1 July 2013). The end of year bonus will increase by 1% from 5.75% to 6.75% of salary. An important change is that workers who don’t have a year’s service by the end of the year will still be entitled to a proportion of the bonus. This will affect around 20,000 workers.
