Overall, 1.6 percent of the eligible salary sum is available for 2025: 0.7 percent for general salary increases, 0.5 percent for individual salary increases and – as provided for in the CEC – 0.4 percent for structural salary increases. As such, Swiss Post and PostFinance ensure that employees in the lower positions of the respective salary band benefit from the salary measures to a greater extent. The salary measures affect the 25,300 or so employees who are covered by the Post CH Ltd collective employment contract (CEC), as well as the 2,800 or so employees covered by the PostFinance Ltd CEC.
Furthermore, Swiss Post and PostFinance are increasing the salary bands in the CEC by 1.6 percent. The minimum salary will rise by 871 Swiss francs to 55,288 francs per year, i.e. around 4,250 francs per month. Swiss Post and PostFinance are implementing all salary measures retroactively as of 1 April 2025.
Full-time CEC employees already received a one-off payment of 400 francs with their January salary as an additional salary measure. With this gesture, Swiss Post and PostFinance acknowledged the outstanding dedication of CEC employees, who have given their all for customers over the past year.
