Public sector employees, in February, will be paid with a 105-euro cofficient

Following the principle (in first reading) approval in the first part of today's Assembly session, MPs have approved in the evening even at second reading the amendments to the Budget Law for 2023, thus agreeing that the new salary cofficiency is 105 euros.

With the adoption of the new Law of Salaries, public sector employees from the month of February will be paid with the new cofficiency.

But that law voted 63 MPs.

The bill was presented before MPs by Finance Minister Hekuran Murati, who also reasoned on the value of cofficiency of 105 euros in wages for public officials, defined by this law.

MP Armend Muja presented the Commission's recommendation for Boards, Labour and Transfera, as well as Vetevendosje's GP position on adopting this bill, simultaneously presenting comparable aspects of current wages and salaries with the new law, in various public sectors. He said the new value of the cofficient envisions significant wage increases for many categories of employees in the public sector.

In that same spirit were Minister Murati's presentations.

Through MPs Ferat Shala and Hykmete Bajrami, GP The PDK and LDK expressed themselves against the established value of the cofficiency, praising it is low, which they say does not meet the needs of families of public officials.

After a widespread debate, the Parliament adopted the bill, which, under the procedure motion proposed by MP Muja, was reviewed and adopted on second readings tonight.

Approvals in the second review preceded the review of permanent and functional commissions.
