RTK Workers Union seeks from new Board and Management RTKs to immediately implement the decision on the minimum wage in the Republic of Kosovo, which from July 1st to 2026 totals 500 euros for full-time work.

There are workers in RTK who expect this legal right and will not accept any delay or neglect in implementing it. The minimum wage is not a privilege, but a legal obligation that is implemented in all sectors in the Republic of Kosovo.

The union's leadership warns that any delay, avoidance or attempted failure to comply with this legal obligation will be immediately reported to the Labour Inspectorate and addressed to the competent organs of the Republic of Kosovo.

RTK workers cannot be treated as second-class, while the law applies to all others. It is time for RTK to observe the minimum legal standards and the dignity of its workers.

With respect,

SPARTK's leadership. /
