Small wage increases for the graphic arts industry
Graphic designers and printers will have to make do with small wage increases: The Swiss Association for Visual Communication Viscom recommends a wage adjustment of up to 0.8 percent for 2011. The trade unions are demanding an increase of up to 2.5 percent.
However, the employers' association Viscom and the trade unions have agreed that the graphic arts industry has still not recovered from the crisis, Viscom wrote in a press release on Thursday, according to SDA. For this reason, the companies would have to decide on their own wage policy depending on their economic situation.
