Wage increase – when will we know?
In essence, the official December figures of the Statistical Office of Slovenia determine the living costs and as a result the wage increase adjusts to that. In essence, this figure compares the increase in consumer prices in December of the previous year to December of the year before. So, when will we know about the wage increase? Normally, we will find out in the first half of January.
The minimum wage must be in line with the Minimum Wage Act
The Minimum Wage Act (ZMinP) provides that the minimum wage needs to adjust to between 120% and 140% of the minimum costs of living. However, the increase must take into account the increase in consumer prices, wage developments, economic conditions and employment developments in the previous year. Besides that, the wage increase will also depend on the new income tax legislation. So, are you an entrepreneur and want to know which incomes are exempt from income tax? Do you find this helpful?
