“has been discussed for minimum wage. We have demanded that the minimum wage be 600 euros in the private sector. I have seen the consent of competent people or government in office, so their assessment is that this salary is 500 euros and I've asked him if everything goes well when you think it's starting to implement. According to the minister's statement, the minimum salary of 500 euros is said to start implementing in January, but still has not rejected our proposal for much 600 euros. Of all the actors we've agreed that the minimum wage will be 500 euros and start implementing in January”, Azemi said after the meeting.

Meanwhile, the Kosovo Chamber of Commerce representative said they have demanded that the minimum wage increase begin in January, when there is a new functional government.

“We know the prime minister's proposed salary was Sunday. It was a political campaign. We asked the minister that this issue be postponed until there is a functional government, we have requested that no decisions be issued without consultations, as has been made with an increase in the electricity price. We're seeing the consequences now. These decisions have made work in Kosovo uncertain.

The meeting was more consultative, it wasn't about making a decision. We have come with this goal as the Chamber of Commerce”, he said. /Periscopi/
