Public‑sector wage deals (education, health, local govt)

Overview

In mid-2026, the Italian government concluded several integrative agreements for education, police, and local government staff, implementing one-off payments and monthly salary increases. By late July, ARAN and health-sector unions signed a pre-agreement for the 2025–2027 NHS contract. This deal provides an average gross monthly increase of €209 (€240 for nurses) and retroactive payments of approximately €2,300 for nurses. The contract also introduces a dedicated AI title, banning fully automated employment decisions, and creates new roles such as cybersecurity specialists and disability managers. Pierpaolo Volpe, president of the Order of Nursing Professions in Taranto, welcomed the renewal but urged Health Minister Orazio Schillaci to extend similar terms to private-sector nurses. In early August, ARAN finalized the 2022–2024 collective labor agreement for the education and research sector, enabling school managers to receive overdue pay and salary increases starting in September. Simultaneously, a 2025–2027 agreement for the Central Functions sector—covering roughly 200,000 ministry and tax agency employees—was signed, providing average gross monthly increases of €162 starting in 2027 and including AI-related protections. Implementation updates in mid-August show the Ministry of Education and Merit (MIM) is implementing salary increases for teachers and ATA staff via the NoiPA system, with average monthly gross increases of approximately €143 for teachers and €107 for ATA personnel. Additionally, the Italian Council of State issued a ruling clarifying that national collective bargaining agreements (CCNL) signed by representative organizations will serve as the legal benchmark for determining a “fair wage” (salario giusto) under Article 36 of the Constitution. However, implementation has faced challenges. The teachers' union ANIEF warned staff to scrutinize payslips for potential errors following the scheduled August 11 arrears payment. Additionally, the FederATA union reported that funds for ATA personnel remain unreleased, prompting threats of legal action and nationwide mobilization against the Ministry of Education and Merit.
