How to read the PC 111 pay scale
- The FPS publishes 10 tables for PC 111, with 44 amounts in total.
- Each table heading says whether an amount is an hourly or a monthly wage.
- The amount depends on what the rows and columns show: the category or class, seniority or years in the job, age, the working schedule in hours per week. First find the category or class of the job, then read off the row that fits the employee.
- These are sectoral minimum wages. A company agreement or the employment contract can set a higher wage.
The tables, headings and official notes below are shown exactly as the FPS publishes them, in Dutch. We do not translate legal categories, so the official wording stays the reference. The French version is on the official FPS page.
