In a statement published on Tuesday, Swisscom’s social partners Syndicom union and the “blue giant” announced that they reached an agreement with the Transfair staff association on this issue. This aims to take inflation into account, especially when it comes to reducing salaries.

Most employees will receive an across-the-board pay increase that varies depending on their position in the pay band, it said. A part of this amount is allocated to individual wage increases. A one-time payment will be made to employees who receive salaries above the wage range.

“The negotiated wage increase makes a significant contribution to reducing the loss of purchasing power of employees,” said Daniel Hügli, head of the ICT sector of the Syndicom union.

Staff association Transfair would like to achieve more than this: “Although we are targeting a higher result due to Swisscom’s good annual results in 2023 (…), the wage agreement seems to us an acceptable compromise. Transfair’s ICT industry “depending on the market situation,” explained director Marika Schaeren. Depending on the situation in the wage band, inflation was compensated for at least the majority of Swisscom employees.
