Sunrise with extended collective employment contract from 2026: more flexibility for varying life situations

 

 

Sunrise is expanding further its position as a modern, employee-orientated employer. With the further development of the CEC and the TCE, Sunrise is paying particular attention to the varying life phases and diverse life situations of its employees.

André Krause, CEO of Sunrise, is convinced: «With our progressive CEC, we’re emphasising our forward-looking corporate culture, which takes deliberate account of a variety of life paths and creates scope for individual life situations. Attractive working conditions promote motivation, performance and a sense of belonging. We’re therefore deliberately going beyond the industry standard.»

«Our goal was to further enhance the already attractive working conditions at Sunrise. The updated collective employment contract agreement now provides employees with even greater flexibility and support. The result demonstrates that social partnership is most effective when employees’ needs are genuinely taken into account,» explains Teresa Dos Santos Lima-Matteo, Head of the ICT sector at syndicom.

The most important innovations include:

These changes supplement the existing CEC. Previous benefits such as FlexWork, working abroad and two days of paid voluntary work will be retained and round off the attractive Sunrise working conditions, which are above average.

With its CEC, Sunrise is setting an example of an innovative, employee-centred working environment. An overview of the most important changes to the CEC can be found in the appendix to the media release .
