Constructive discussion about facility services sector terms of employment
The collective agreement negotiations between Service Union United PAM and Real Estate Employers continue next week.
“We have had discussions based on the so-called qualitative goals, that is the proposed changes to the agreement text. The discussion has been constructive”, says Collective Bargaining Specialist Jarkko Viitanen.
“There are areas where we have found common will to develop the sector. The most difficult part of the negotiations, agreement on pay increases, still lies ahead.”
A pay settlement in the sector could not be reached within the set deadline of 15 January 2023. Hence, PAM terminated the collective agreement.
Negotiations for a new collective agreement started on 24 January 2023. The current agreement is in force until 28 February 2023.
