Azem, at “Dosier D” at RTV Dukaagjini, has said that the rise of the minimum wage in the private sector is now a delayed and difficult move can have effect.
Even if we offer workers today 700 or 1,000 euros' wages because in the minds of private sector workers, the journey has entered because of losing hope and dignity of these workers”.
The head of the Private Sector Union has said state institutions have not been seriously taken with this issue despite remarks the union has withdrawn.
“Defacto this will no longer be a minimum wage, but an elder's salary because most of the young people have already fled or are leaving, and Kosovo is already empty”, he said, records Telegrafi.
Azzam has said that calls by institutional officials for not leaving young people are in vain, as even the three carriers of institutions themselves have been to the West for better life.
“The salaries of private sector workers in Kosovo are the lowest in the region, while we have the highest salaries of state leaders. This is a big record”.
He has said it is very painful that Kosovo, ten years ago, has had the largest nighting in the region, while now we have the lowest history in the region.
This is what our state itself did, which even the greatest pessimist would not have thought”, Yusuf Azemi declared.
