How to read the PC 313 pay scale

  • The FPS publishes 2 tables for PC 313, with 186 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. 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.

Official FPS text

Om te bepalen of het maandelijks minimumloon dat tussen de partijen werd overeengekomen beantwoordt aan het hieronder voorziene minimum, moet men rekening houden met alle elementen die in artikel 2 van de wet van 12 april 1965 betreffende de bescherming van het loon der werknemers worden vermeld, met inbegrip van de voordelen toegekend op een andere dan de maandelijkse basis.

Voor de apotheker die krachtens een overeenkomst voor deeltijdse arbeid is tewerkgesteld, zijn de bepalingen toepasselijk van de collectieve overeenkomst nr. 35 van 27 februari 1981, afgesloten in de Nationale Arbeidsraad, en voornamelijk artikel 10.
