Employee costs in 2026 

Employee costs account for 75% of the total costs. This year, the increase under the collective labour agreement (CLA) is composed as follows:

  • The impact of salary increases carried over from 2025 (2,5% per 1/7/2025) on 2025 salary costs is 1,25%. In the 2025 rate, this salary increase was included for six months; in 2026, it will apply to the entire year.
  • The increase in the year-end bonus amounts to 2.5% as of 1/1/2026, but as this does not apply to holiday allowance, the total effect on employee costs is 2.3%.
  • As of 1/9/2026, the gross salary will rise by 1.5%, resulting in a total effect of 0.5% for 2026.
  • Under the collective labour agreement (CLA), employees receive an annual periodic salary increase. The effect of this increase is 2.3%, but since 3% of our employees are at the top of the scale, the total effect amounts to 2.1%.

This brings the total increase in employee costs for 2026 to 6.2%.
