Collective employment contracts
The new postal legislation requires Swiss Post to negotiate a new collective employment contract (CEC) with the unions within two years of the conversion of Post CH Ltd and PostFinance Ltd into public limited companies. The negotiations provide an opportunity to modernize and adapt the current agreement to today's business and social needs. The negotiations should take account of the interests of both Swiss Post and its employees. Clearly, Swiss Post has its sights set on continuing to offer attractive working conditions in the future. The new employment conditions are expected to enter into force in 2015. Swiss Post Solutions Ltd and PRESTO AG have already concluded negotiations for separate collective employment contracts, and negotiations for the remaining subsidiaries will be conducted at a later stage.
