Trade union leader: Starting next year, low salaries will rise and high salaries will be capped
All variants discussed eye a reduction of the GDP percentage allocated to salaries from 9.4% in 2009 to 6% in 2015, according to a governmental press release.
Bogdan Hossu says the reduction would not mean a cut in salary funds, but only the percentage of the GDP they represent, as the GDP is expected to increase until 2015.
According to Hossu, a freeze of the minimum salary may be discussed, but maintaining the minimum salary at its current level would not have a positive effect on the economy as the "current [economic] crisis is a consumption crisis".
