The 2025 wage settlement

What happens when in this year's wage settlement? Here you will find the central dates.

Local negotiations

How much more you will receive in salary this year will be decided in the local negotiations
Når får jeg vite hvor mye jeg får i lønnstillegg i år?

Først når de lokale forhandlingene er ferdige, vet du hvor mye du fikk i lønnsøkning. Lurer du på når de skal forhandle der du jobber, ta kontakt med din tillitsvalgt.

Når får jeg etterbetalt årets lønnsoppgjør?

Årets lønnstillegg etterbetales så fort det er praktisk mulig etter at lokale forhandlinger er ferdige. Du får etterbetaling fra og med den virkningsdatoen partene har blitt enige om.

Når er de lokale forhandlingene?

Lokale forhandlinger skjer til litt ulike tider i de ulike virksomhetene. De fleste forhandler på forsommeren eller tidlig høst. Ta kontakt med din tillitsvalgt for å høre når de har avtalt lokale forhandlinger der du jobber. 

Wage settlement in the private sector

In the private sector, the actual wage negotiations take place locally in the individual company. However, the collective agreements are negotiated centrally.

  • For most people, local negotiations will take place before 15 September.
  • Central negotiations for Virke HUK will take place on 16-18 June.

Wage settlement in the public sector

The wage settlement in 2025 is an interim settlement. This means that the parties negotiate about finances, not the rest of the text in the collective agreements.

State

In the central negotiations, they are negotiating how much money should be set aside for a salary increase this year. We call this the financial framework. The money is then distributed in local negotiations, so it is only when they are finished that you know your wage growth this year.

  • 24 April: The central negotiations begin
  • 30 April at 24.00: Deadline for the central negotiations
  • Autumn: Local negotiations in the individual government agencies and enterprises

Municipality/KS

  • 24 April: The central negotiations begin
  • 30 April at 24.00: Deadline for the central negotiations
  • Autumn: Local negotiations in the individual municipalities and county authorities

Most of NITO's members who work in municipalities and county authorities have their salaries determined in local negotiations. But first, the central parties negotiate how large a pay increase should be given to those who work in teaching positions and set a deadline for local negotiations.

Samfunnsbedriftene

NITO has two different collective agreements with Samfunnsbedriftene - the company agreement and the energy agreement II. The actual text of these agreements will not be negotiated this year. The financial framework for this year's settlement and its distribution will be negotiated in local negotiations.

Initial central negotiations have been postponed due to the ongoing mediation in the KS area between KS and LO/YS. New negotiation dates:

  • Corporate Agreement: 3 and 4 June 
  • Energy agreement: 17 and 18 June
