We have been in dialogue with T-Systems for several years now, supporting and training employee representatives in trade union matters. At the heart of this work is the T-Systems CLA, which regulates the working conditions of around 600 employees since 2020.
Shaping the future with syndicom
No industry is changing as rapidly as the IT industry. However, innovation requires appropriate work structures and working conditions. Strong collective labour agreements are therefore all the more important so that employees can benefit from the positive aspects of the technological transformation as well. Constant training and further education is particularly indispensable in this industry. syndicom therefore bears part of the training costs for syndicom members and encourages companies to invest in employee training and to issue appropriate regulations.
New opportunities with CLA
The collective labour agreement (CLA) gives T-Systems Switzerland a degree of autonomy. The CLA enables employees to have a real say in Switzerland and help shape their working conditions. The T-Systems 2020 CLA offers better protection and secure working conditions for around 600 employees. The CLA contains a binding framework for wages, working hours, holidays and continued payment of wages in the event of illness or accident.
The task of syndicom is to develop the CLA jointly and in the interests of the employees and to ensure that the wage and working conditions defined by the CLA are observed. A strong trade union with active members is essential to continue to shape the world of work to the benefit of employees in the future.
