Azem: The rise in minimum wage has been made for face-to-face

The chairman of this Union, Yusuf Azemi, says the government will have the biggest loss from this change.

“Actually, there has been a change for the face of the page... We repeat, the 264-euro salary being talked about is like talking about the snow of the first year... all accounts made, the biggest loser in this case, in the first place being us as workers, but tomorrow's biggest loser than we will be the Government of Kosovo, because with these workers paid at this salary, there are only workers paid from the Kosovo budget, said 1.

He announced that they did not seek a meeting with President Vjosa Osmani, since it is humiliating to them.

We didn't ask for a meeting with the president. We have also constantly notified the president of our demands, of our troubles, but now we do not see fit to seek an appointment. If they need us, we're ready, or you're looking for an appointment with them, I think, unfortunately, it's the Union's humiliating, to ask for a meeting with them”, potential Azem.

Despite the warned protests, he added that the private sector will not participate in any case.

Kosovo's Independent Union of Private Sector has asked President Vjosa Osmani not to decree the Law for the minimum wage. According to them, this is the lowest salary in the region.

The minimum wage, worth 264 euros, has been approved in the Kosovo Assembly last week.
