Draft law on civil service salaries: unions raise the alarm!

dispute over civil servants: the unions sound alarm! On Friday, October 11, 2024, the Federal Ministry of the Interior and for home was presented by the draft law on the new federal salaries. But instead of cheers, loud protests from ver.di and the DGB!

The draft, which is intended in response to the judgments of the Federal Constitutional Court of 2020, is criticized by the unions as much too lax. They warn that it is not a real reform, but a measly minimal regulation that only causes more injustice!

criticism of patchching

"It looks as if the requirements of the Federal Constitutional Court and the empty bassage of the federal government only produce flick traisi," complains Christine Behle, the deputy ver.di chairman. The federal government must finally present a future -oriented proposal for salary instead of introducing new injustices!

Especially the suggestions for alimentary supplementary surcharges ensure outrage. These are not only non -transparent, but also difficult to convey and should not be the solution to the problems of civil servants and soldiers.

The expectations increase

While finances are tense, the unions continue to demand a conclusive overall concept. Many federal states have already adopted advanced laws - the federal government has to follow suit! Civil society is eagerly awaiting a transparent proposal that expresses the appreciation for the work of the civil servants.

The talks about the bill are far from over. In November, the cabinet should advise on the proposals, with a possible entry into force in May 2025. The federal government remains: does the federal government manage to take the rights and claims of its civil servants seriously, or in the end there is only an inadequate solution?
