How to read the PC 327.03 pay scale

The FPS publishes 3 tables for PC 327.03, with 692 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.

FPS notes on this pay scale

Indexatie met 2% in 7/2026.

In geval van indexatie in toepassing van de sectorale CAO’s worden zowel de minimumlonen als de reële lonen geïndexeerd.

Het sectorale loonbarema wordt volgens de CAO van 30/05/00 (63380) geïndexeerd overeenkomstig de wet van augustus 1971, hetgeen impliceert dat in geval van indexatie de loonbedragen het product zijn van basisbedragen met een oplopende indexatiecoëfficiënt. Er is evenwel geen sectorale CAO met basisbedragen. Daarom wordt er in dit loonbarema geïndexeerd door de vorige loonbedragen te vermenigvuldigen met 1,02.
