Local Salary negotiations in September

Local Salary negotiations HTA, 2.5.3 

These negotiations are authorised in the Basic Collective Agreement (BCA), clause 2.5.3. Negotiations usually takes place five times a year. The employer or the Union can demand to negotiate a new salary and/or change of position code, with important changes in the position’s responsibility and tasks.
 

To be able to submit a salary claim you have to meet one of the following requirements:

1. Significant changes to the employee’s tasks (the claim must be documented so that it is possible to measure the changes. What is crucial is that the employee is given tasks which demand something of a higher quality than before, and that the new tasks are on a higher level.) – BCA, clause 2.5.3,1a
2. Made an extraordinary work effort (beyond what is expected) – BCA, clause 2.5.3,
3. Problems in recruiting or retaining specially qualified labour. If the claim is based on recruitment considerations, it must be documented that there is a real risk of losing especially valuable expertise. Documentation can be  a job offer.

We recommend that you ask for a salary conversation with your leader before submitting your claim.
