The two biggest trade unions in the country – the Confederation of Independent Trade Unions in Bulgaria and Podkrepa – are turning down the invitation from employer organizations to sit down to negotiations on the minimum wage today.
The state is proposing a 9 percent rise in the minimum wage, up to 235 euro per month in 2017.
