As announced, the unified status for supplementary pensions will enter into force from 1 January 2030. The change is being made because treating blue-collar and white-collar workers differently in this area is considered discriminatory. Between 2015 and 2030, organisations must gradually eliminate the differences between the two employee categories in relation to supplementary pensions. How do you go about this as an employer?
The harmonisation activity will initially take place at sectoral level. All sectors will have until 1 January 2027 to eliminate supplementary pension differences between blue-collar and white-collar workers. This means that we are approaching the last two-year sectoral consultation period (employment agreement 2025-2026).
