The largest Bulgarian trade union, the Confederation of Independent Trade Unions of Bulgaria (KNSB), is pushing for the minimum wage to be increased to 760 leva (388 euro) from July 1.
Ahead of the KNSB congress in Sofia, the confederation's president Plamen Dimitrov said that the main goal is for Bulgarians to reach 70% of the living standards of the average European in five years and this is not a chimera.
"I expect the budget update to include earmarked funds for social stability. All international financial institutions are warning about an imminent two-year inflation. The government's decisions should be directed first and foremost to social protection in order to reduce the effects of the crisis and high prices," Bulgarian Vice President Iliana Iotova urged at the congress.
