Annual Update of Wages and Food & Accommodation Values in Domestic Work
According to the National Collective Agreement for Domestic Work, it specifies the annual update process for minimum contractual wages and conventional values for board and lodging. These updates are based on changes in the cost of living for families of employees and workers, as recorded by ISTAT on November 30th of each year.
The National Commission for Wage Update, convened by the Ministry of Labor and Social Welfare, meets annually to establish the necessary adjustments. In the absence of an agreement or the presence of the parties after three convocations, the Ministry is authorized to determine a wage increase equal to 80% of the cost of living change for minimum wages and 100% for the board and lodging values.
These adjustments become effective from January 1st of each year, ensuring that domestic workers receive compensation that reflects the current economic conditions, thus maintaining their ability to sustain life's necessities in a context of inflation or economic variations.

The minimum contractual wages and the conventional values for board and lodging, determined by the present contract, have been varied by the National Commission for wage updating as provided by art. 45, according to the cost of living changes for employee and worker families recorded by ISTAT as of November 30th each year.
2. To this end, the Commission shall be convened by the Ministry of Labor and Social Security, by December 20th of each year at the latest, for the first call, and, in any subsequent calls, every 15 days. After the third call, in case of no agreement or absence of the parties, the Ministry of Labor and Social Security is delegated by the signing Organizations and Associations to determine the periodic change of the minimum wage, according to what established in paragraph 1, equal to 80% of the cost of living change for employee and worker families recorded by ISTAT regarding the minimum contractual wages and equal to 100% for the conventional values of board and lodging.
