Rule Keeper: KV Handel NEU

Digital transition to the new collective bargaining agreement for white collar workers in trade

By 1 January 2022 at the latest, all employees in the trade sector must be reclassified to the new salary system under the KV Handel NEU.

In addition to the classification of each individual employee in the new employment group system, the transfer also requires, among other things, the determination of the new minimum salary under the collective bargaining agreement and the issue of a transfer service note.

With Rule Keeper, we offer our clients a way to switch all their employees quickly, smoothly, and cost-effectively. The tool provides assistance with classification, calculates differentials (so-called ‘reform amounts’) and overpayments, and automatically creates the transfer service note. At the end you will receive a transfer protocol for the entire company to ensure that the process is fully documented.
