Overview
- The CCNL for the Education and Research sector was signed at ARAN on November 5, covering schools, universities, research bodies and Afam for 1,286,000 employees.
- Average wage increases are about €150 a month for teachers and roughly €110 for ATA staff, with peaks up to €185 for some teachers by seniority and about €240 for researchers and technologists.
- Retroactive arrears will be paid, with many teachers expected around €1,900–€2,000 and ATA personnel roughly €1,400, according to figures released at signing.
- Most unions including CISL, UIL, SNALS, Gilda and Anief signed the deal, while FLC CGIL declined, arguing the rises do not offset recent inflation.
- Government and ARAN called for immediate negotiations on the 2025–2027 contract, highlighting a €240 million ministerial one‑off and €170 million for accessory‑pay tax relief, with officials projecting larger cumulative gains if a follow‑on deal is reached.
