After months of negotiations, social partners in the tourism sector have reached an agreement on a new collective bargaining agreement (CBA). This agreement affects approximately 250,000 employees in hospitality and gastronomy, providing for an average wage increase of 3.02 percent, which will come into effect in October 2026.

The agreement was reached following several failed negotiation rounds and protests. In addition to the pay increase, bonuses are also included in the new collective bargaining agreement, though no further details have been provided.
