Property services sector salaries to increase from August 1 – see instructions for checking your pay slip

Personal salaries and salary tables will be increased by 1.8 percent at the beginning of August. These are the wage increases for the second year of the current collective agreement period.

The second-year wage increases of the collective bargaining agreement, signed in March last year, will come into effect on August 1, 2024. This second-year wage increase differs from last year’s euro-based increase. Now, both salary tables and personal wages will be increased by a general increase of 1.8 percent.

Here’s how the salaries will increase

From the first day of August, salary tables and personal salaries (contract salaries) will be increased by 1.8 percent.

Example 1: If your personal salary (contract salary) is 13 euros per hour, your salary after the increse is 13,23 euros per hour.

Example 2: Monthly salary for salary group no. 5 increases from 2186 euros to 2225 euros. Therefore the hourly wage for salary group no. 5 increases from 13,58 euros to 13,82 euros.

Note! The salary increases will take effect for work done in August. If your payday is in August but the payment is for work done in July, the increase will not yet be included.

Collective agreement negotiations coming up next year

The current collective agreement is valid until March 31, 2025, which means that early next year, negotiations on wages and other working conditions in the facility service sector will take place. Collective bargaining is a team effort where the power of the group is consolidated. The better organized the employees are, the better their negotiating position will be.

Therefore, it’s good to discuss about salary increases and upcoming negotiations at the workplace now, and to recommend PAM membership to your colleagues. When you recommend membership and your colleague joins PAM, you will receive a gift card (up to 250 euros) as a reward.

Remember to check your pay slip

Please remember to always check your pay slip. The employer must always provide the employee with a salary statement (salary slip, pay slip) when paying the salary. Check it and compare it with your timesheets. Does the number of hours you have worked match? Did you get all the extras too? Please remember to save your pay slip.
