Abstract: The current annual collective bargaining report of the WSI Collective Agreement Archive contains a comprehensive analysis of the 2020 bargaining round and gives an overview of the demands and results as well as a calculation of the annual wage increases. In 2020 collectively agreed wages grew on average 2.0 % in nominal terms. As the inflation rate was only 0.5 % there was a significant 1.5 % increase in real ­wages. Thus, even under the difficult conditions of the Covid-19 pandemic, collective bargaining policy has made an important contribution to stabilising incomes. However, fewer and fewer workers in Germany are covered by a collective agreement. Strengthening collective bargaining coverage is therefore one of the most important challenges.
