Finally: New collective employment agreement

Solid footing thanks to collective employment agreement.

Collective employment agreement for the floor covering industry approved!

The Federal Council has approved the collective employment agreement negotiated by the social partners Angestellte Schweiz and BodenSchweiz for the floor covering industry in German-speaking Switzerland.

The new CEA prevents dumping prices in the industry. It prevents wage dumping and poor working conditions, thereby protecting around 5,500 floor layers in the floor covering industry.

  • Minimum wages (combating wage dumping)
  • Increasing the attractiveness of the industry
  • Further training opportunities
  • Professional approach to occupational health and safety (e.g. BodenFit industry solution to reduce accidents)

The CEA needs your support

  1. The CEA will only remain strong if many floor layers join Angstellte Schweiz
  2. The CEA will only remain strong if the majority of companies also join the BodenSchweiz employers' association.

‘The decision sends a strong signal: floor layers will finally receive clear wage and health protection standards. This makes the profession more attractive and creates security for employees.’

Alexander Bélaz President Angestellte Schweiz

‘Floor coverings decisively shape the style, appearance and well-being at home or in a commercial property. Professional advice and competent installation is only possible with strong professionals.’

René Bossert President BodenSchweiz
