Some of the benefits of collective agreements:

  1. Attractiveness for employers: Collective bargaining agreements increase the attractiveness for employers looking for shortage skills. Potential employees increasingly ask about the existence of a collective agreement when choosing a workplace. It also makes it easier to retain skilled staff, as insurance and pension conditions become market-based in a cost-effective way.
  2. Smoother recruitment of foreign workers: a collective agreement meets the requirements of the Immigration Service and supports the work permit application process. It facilitates the recruitment of staff from outside the EU.
  3. Good working and pension conditions: Collective agreements provide simple quality assurance for both employees and companies. It reduces administration time and provides better pension conditions than individual companies can negotiate.
  4. Security and stability: Collective agreements provide employees with security through regulated working conditions, wages and benefits. This creates a stable working environment and reduces the risk of conflict.
