Key legal question
Whether the GAV or municipal law governed the service anniversary gift for primary school teachers.
Extracted holding
The GAV did not override the municipality's own rules on the service anniversary gift in the narrow sense; the municipality remained competent to regulate that gift.
Extracted reasoning
The court distinguished between the GAV's wage-related treueprämie and the separate non-wage service anniversary gift. Legislative history showed that the canton had intentionally left regulation of the latter to the municipalities.
