PNL president Prime Minister Ludovic Orban said in an interview that there will be a gradual increase in the minimum wage in the economy until the minimum wage is reached in construction.
This government program says that new taxes and fees will not be increased or introduced, but that at the current stage the main effort will be made to improve revenue collection, eliminating distortions and gaps that minimize the tax burden. This is one of the provisions.
Is the income of construction and IT workers targeted? What answer did Orban give
“As for the construction workers, we have also publicly announced what we will do.
There, the minimum wage is set at a higher level than the minimum wage in the economy. There will be a gradual increase in the minimum wage in the economy until it reaches the minimum wage in construction.
There will be a grace period in which this field, construction, will benefit from a facility, say, minimum wage higher than the minimum wage for the rest of the economy. Regarding the taxation of IT salaries, we did not affect them, nor did we affect them this year.
Of course, as things evolve, only through dialogue, only through consultation, little by little we will try to find solutions, to ensure fiscal fairness, because this is important, ”said Prime Minister Ludovic Orban, according to Agerpres.
And the pensions?
The Minister of Labor, Violeta Alexandru, announced this Saturday night that the pensions of Romanians will increase both in 2021 and in the following years, according to the NLP government program.
“Things are clearly mentioned, pensions will increase. We have grown this year, in a difficult economic year, we will have an increase in the following years. We make the statement in the government program as employees of our desire to increase pensions.
PSD made a promise, but did not keep it. PNL also increased pensions in a difficult year. We were with the Romanians because we know that their contributions feed the budget with which we pay pensions. The difference between us and the PSD is that we don’t lie, “said Violeta Alexandru.
