Result on the Mandatory Annual Negotiations

The NAO 2024 was unsuccessful, no union signed an agreement. 

  • A unilateral management decision was taken during the negotiation for the salary policy 
  • The negotiation did not live up to expectations. All of our requests were rejected:
    • Salary increase supported by the inter-union
    • Compensation for the IP Box effect *
    • Revaluation of penalties unchanged for 12 years
    • Increase in the PEE contribution
    • …

       with the exception of a few marginal measures, such as, the 7th day of seniority, for those with 35 years of seniority.

* The IP Box allows income from transfers / concessions / sub-concessions of intellectual property rights (patents, software, plant variety certificates, industrial processes, etc.) to be subject to a reduced tax rate: 10% instead by 25%.
