The Ministry of Labor and Social Protection suggests setting the average monthly official salary for 2022 at 9,900 lei, IPN reports.
In a draft decision, the Ministry argues the proposal is based on the macro-economic indicators forecast by the Ministry of Economy for 2022-2024.
Recently, the national commission for collective consultations and negotiations discussed proposals to raise the minimum guaranteed salary in the real sector that is now 2,935 lei. As of next February, this is to be increased to 3,500 lei. The dialogue will be resumed to consider raising the minimum salary again in May. The authorities agree with trade unions that this should be increased to 4,000 lei.
