Romanian Healthcare Employees To Receive Stability Bonus – Minister

"This is the first time healthcare authorities make such a proposal, as the system is confronted with a shortage of staff due to migration, since more and more doctors are tempted to go practice abroad. The stability bonus can be granted once a year, in the fourth quarter or in installments during this period,” Nicolaescu said.

 

Basic salaries for healthcare staff have been increased in three stages: by 5% starting Jan. 1, 2007 compared to Dec. 2006; by 2% starting Apr. 1, 2007 compared to Mar. 2007 and by 14% starting Oct. 1, 2007 compared to Sept. 2007.
