FAQ

Frequently asked questions about sectoral agreements

How do you manage meal vouchers with night shifts in casinos?

Meal vouchers are granted per actual working day, regardless of the schedule (day, night, weekend). The Monizze card adapts to all work patterns.

Is the €0.50 increase cumulative with annual bonuses?

Yes, the meal voucher increase adds to annual bonuses and wage indexation. These measures are complementary and strengthen the overall package.

What are the risks if the €0.50 increase is not applied in casinos?

Failure to comply with JC 217 sectoral agreements constitutes non-compliance that may lead to disputes with union representatives and a loss of competitiveness in a sector with strong competition for talent.

Is the €10 meal voucher mandatory for all companies?

No. The legal ceiling is set at €10, but the actual amount depends on your sector agreements. Some sectors require the maximum, others a lower amount.

Can meal vouchers be optimised without increasing the overall cost for the employer?

Yes. Meal vouchers benefit from a favourable tax regime. A modelling exercise with Monizze allows you to compare scenarios and identify the most optimised option for your budget.
