A minimum monthly salary of 388 euro as of 1 January, 2022. This is what the biggest trade union in the country, the Confederation of Independent Trade Unions in Bulgaria (CITUB) is demanding.
The increase from the current minimum monthly salary of 322 euro is 17%. This is the only way that the growing inflation, and the upcoming rise in electricity prices can be addressed. According to the CITUB the rise of the minimum salary will push the average salary up by 12%, Violeta Ivanova, deputy director of the CITUB Institute for Social and TU Research said for bTV. The trade union is expecting basic prices to go up by 5% by the end of 2021, which is way over the projected 3.5%.
According to CITUB estimates, by 2024, when Bulgaria is expected to join the Eurozone, the minimum monthly salary in the country should reach 500 euro.
