The cable network operator Cablecom is increasing the wage bill for its employees by 2.6 percent from April. This measure was negotiated together with the communications union and employee representatives, as Cablecom announced on Wednesday. The salary increase is a few percent higher than the average: the calculated salary increase across all sectors is currently 2.2 percent (calculated by the consulting firm Cepec) or 2.4 percent (calculated by UBS). In addition, fathers among employees will in future be entitled to five days' paternity leave instead of the previous one day. Fathers are now also entitled to five days' adoption leave.
In cooperation with employee representatives and the Communications union, Cablecom also intends to examine its salaries this year using the methodology of the Federal Office for Gender Equality in order to bring transparency to the salary levels of women and men. According to the press release, adjustments will be made where necessary to eliminate wage differences.
