"Regarding the SMIC (Net Minimum Interprofessional Wage), we decided on two things: we decided to advance the increase (the automatic increase that was supposed to take place on January 1) to December 1, and we decided to raise this increase to 1.6%," stated Jean-Pierre Farandou, the Minister of Labor, at a press conference. While unions denounce the maintenance of minimum wages below the SMIC in certain professional sectors, Jean-Pierre Farandou asserted that this increase will constitute "a small help, but also a great boost." #SalariulMinim #ProtesteFranta #NegocieriSindicale (translated)
