Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen According to the Bau-Holz (GBH) trade union, entry-level wages are the highest in Austria. The new collectively agreed minimum starting wage is 2786.58 euros, the new one for skilled workers is 3271.35 euros. The agreement was already reached in the spring wage round.
"We were able to reach an agreement in the most difficult political and economic times. An important success and a strong signal from the social partners in the construction industry," said GBH and FSG boss Josef Muchitsch (SPÖ). Three years of recession in the construction sector, rising costs and falling employment had strongly influenced the negotiations.
The economic engine of construction had to be kept alive and unemployment had to be combated. The employees would be sustainably supported by the wage increase in the face of rising prices. Around 100,000 workers are covered by the collective agreement.
