The mandating of the Covid-19 Green Certificate divided Bulgaria’s employers, data of a quick survey of the Bulgarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, conducted in late October among 200 entrepreneurs and representatives of branch organizations, shows. 

49% of the respondents say that it is better for them to continue operating. One third of the respondents believe that the imposed measure restricts human rights. According to one-fifth of the companies, the green certificate impedes workflow. Many employers contend that the measures should be applied proportionately and affect the public administration as well.
