Stronger together: the new hospitality CLA 2025

20-06-2024

Hello hospitality heroes!

With the summer holidays approaching, my colleagues and I are already busy preparing for the new CLA hospitality of 2025. Why? Because the Updates CLA expires at the end of this year and it's important that we reach good agreements with the employers.

Unfortunately, such a CLA doesn't come about automatically. After five years of negotiations, I can say that this is a very complex and intensive process. You almost have to see it as a game; you need to know the rules well and understand what everyone wants. That's why your opinion is so important! We need to know what you find important. What drives you? What do you want to change? Whether it's about sick leave, annual leave, salary, or pension: we want to know it all.

This is our chance to make hospitality more attractive, especially now that there is still such a significant staff shortage. We want to ensure that everyone in hospitality can build a good life and that hospitality is the ideal place to pursue an education. This means we need to work together on better basic agreements. In other words, together we must ensure that working in hospitality continues to be rewarding.

Soon we will kick off our CLA campaign and we need your input! You can give your opinion online or meet us during trade fairs and company visits. And of course, you can always approach me personally.

Let's make hospitality future-proof together. Together we are strong and can really make a difference. 

Let's ensure the hospitality pro doesn't become extinct!
