Kosovo Business Connection laments lack of involvement in discussions on minimum wage

Through a response, the LBK has voiced concern that processes directly affecting the private sector are developing without real involvement in businesses, reducing symbolic economic dialogue.

“Dialolog with businesses cannot be replaced with formal appointment invitations. Businesses are the main contributors to economic development and should be part of any decision-making process affecting the country's” economy, it says in response.

The LBK stresses that a government in office has no mandate or legitimacy to make decisions on major issues, especially those for which it has failed to achieve results during its mandate.

“The introduction of Kosovo's businesses remains committed to being the independent and professional voice of the private sector, requiring genuine institutional co-operation, balanced policies and decisions based on economic analysis ) not in the agenda of the political moment”. /Periscope/
