Social plan for Le Matin: Tamedia seeks solution for those affected
Tamedia wishes to continue negotiations on a social plan for those affected by the discontinuation of the print edition of Le Matin and bring them to a conclusion. Tamedia supports the arbitration process proposed by Impressum and hopes that the process will comply with the framework of the collective bargaining agreement.
Tamedia has always taken the social partnership very seriously and wants to fulfill its obligations as an employer, the company writes in a press release. Since last June, its aim has been to conclude a social plan that will help those affected by the closure of the printed newspaper Le Matin to compensate for the consequences of the job losses and offer them support in their search for new employment.
Tamedia has therefore proposed a "generous social plan" to the employee representatives and the trade unions, which is in line with the practices within the industry and the conditions of the labor market. The offer is better than those made by other Swiss publishing houses in recent years. Tamedia would like to offer solutions to those affected soon and is prepared to go down the arbitration route with the employee representatives, whereby the procedure provided for in the CLA should be applied.
