Employers’ organizations unanimously rejected the cabinet’s proposal which envisages that minimum monthly salary in Bulgaria increases from EUR 312 to EUR 332 as of January 1, 2021. According to Bulgaria’s employers, the increase would deepen the crisis further, especially in small Bulgarian municipalities and insisted that the minimum monthly wage remains unchanged.
