On May 17, the Bulgarian National Radio is to protest for better working conditions and decent wages. The Confederation of Independent Trade Unions in Bulgaria, together with trade union organizations and professional associations in the Bulgarian National Radio, are organizing a protest under the motto “Decent pay for those working in the Bulgarian National Radio". The rally will take place at the intersection near the BNR’s building.

 "Over the years, the problem with financing the Bulgarian National Radio has deepened, which leads to the fact that the remuneration is seriously lagging behind the average lavel for Sofia. The same applies to our colleagues in the regional programs", the Bulgarian National Radio's Director General Milen Mitev said for BTA. In his words, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find new people and to motivate the employees. Milen Mitev expressed hopes that the National Assembly will pay attention to this problem.
