The shortage of staff will lead to a massive increase in wages in the second half of the year. This is one of the conclusions of the study "Salaries and additional benefits - trends" of ManpowerGroup Bulgaria. Almost half (49%) of the 513 employers surveyed from 12 business sectors say they will increase wages уп to 20%, and 2% predict higher growth. The reason for this is the lack of candidates for jobs in certain sectors.
