One of the important factors to consider when starting a business in Europe is also the cost for employees. The novelty in Slovenia when it comes to employment costs is the new amount of minimum wage. Since January 2020, the amount for minimum wage is 940,58€ gross per month. This amount will be valid from 1st January 2020 until 31st December 2020. Are there any other changes that are important for the amount of minimum wage in Slovenia?

Starting January 2020, the minimum wage calculations will no longer include supplements
When defining the minimum salary, the supplements are no longer included. They have to be calculated on top of the minimum wage. Since January 2020, supplements such as supplements for years of service, business performance and special working conditions are no longer part of the minimum wage. Laws and other legislative regulations as well as collective agreements determine these supplements. Until the end of 2019, these supplements could all be a part of the minimum salary calculation.
