The Federal Public Service Employment has modified the remuneration thresholds to be taken into account for the application of certain employment provisions for blue- and white-collar employees.
As of 1 January 2021, following amounts will apply:
Basic amounts | Amounts applicable for 2020 | Amounts applicable as of 1 January 2021 |
EUR 16.100 | EUR 35.761 | EUR 36.201 |
EUR 32.200 | EUR 71.523 | EUR 7.402 |
Currently these remuneration thresholds are relevant to check the validity of a non-competition clause, an arbitration clause and an education clause.
Action point
As of 1 January 2021, employers have to use the new remuneration thresholds to determine if the non-competition clause, the arbitration clause and the education clause included in an employment contract are valid.
