Starting from this March, the minimum wage will amount to 26,046 denars (around 420 euros), an increase of about 26 euros.
At the Economic-Social Council Session on Monday, the Government didn’t change its stand, i.e. the increase will be only the result of the legal alignment. However, the Trade Union Federation left the session.
It pointed out that the fight for a 600-euro minimum wage and a 100-euro increase of all other salaries would continue on the streets through protests. Economy Minister Durmishi, presented the calculation showing the minimum wage was increasing by 6.86%.
