Abstract: The collective bargaining process 2016 was less conflictual than in the previous year. Overall, the DGB unions in Germany negotiated wage and salary agreements for about 11 million employees in 2016. The wage agreements were below the level of the previous year. The duration of the agreements was almost two years (22.8 months). This resulted in an overall annual increase in nominal wage rates of an average of 2.4 percent. This annual increase was above the amount of cost-neutral scope for nominal pay growth, defined as the increase of the consumer prices plus the productivity growth. The basic agreed pay in real terms rose on aggregate by 1.9 percent.
