By the end of next week, the Confederation of Independent Trade Unions in Bulgaria (CITUB) will send the government its proposals to be included in the governing coalition's management program. Trade unionists are already holding talks with individual ministers about sector-specific issues. Among the CITUB’s demands is the inclusion of at least a 10% salary rise in the budget for 2025.
Among the highlights in the social sphere is the union's request to improve the pension system, the President of the CITUB, Plamen Dimitrov, announced.
The union insists on developing and adopting a methodology for officially measuring the living wage and that the minimum and average wages by sector be "decoupled" from the average wage for the country and be "tied" to the living wage.
