Den Haag, 20-12-07

KPN and the unions have reached an understanding about the new collective bargaining agreement to cover the next two years.

The new collective bargaining agreement covers undertakings for salary increases that vary by employee category. With the structural increase capped at 2.5%, there is also a variable remuneration component that, for most employees making target, comes out at 4.25% in 2008 and 5% in 2009.

The new agreement distinguishes between Sales, IT, Retail, Operations and others.

There is also an annual deployment facility allowance worth EUR 1,000 for each employee.

In 2009 a new element will be added to the overall agreement: the collective bargaining allowance. This allowance amounts to 14.8% of the annual salary and may be spent as desired.

Existing allowances such as holiday money and that for the levensloop, the Dutch life course savings scheme, will be amongst those transferred to the collective bargaining allowance.

The unions will put the result of the negotiations to their members at the beginning of next year.
