Romanian Unitary Public Sector Wage Law To Keep 1 To 15 Ratio Between Min-Max Wage

Nica also said the coalition wants the single wage law to become effective as of 2010.

He said coalition members discussed the drafting of the wage law and agreed on a set of principles that will also be discussed during the government meeting.

The deputy prime minister said one of the principles of the law would be to establish a hierarchy in accordance with the European system of wages in the public sector.

"We want this law to follow this European principle of wages based on competence, professionalism, social hierarchy and the activity of each public sector employee,” Nica said, adding the Romanian law will be modeled similarly to laws in countries such as Germany, France, United Kingdom, Spain and Italy.

He also said the law will keep a ratio of one to 15 between the minimum and maximum salary in the public sector.

The Romanian government undertook during negotiations with the International Monetary Fund to draft a singly unitary public sector law by October 1 and the law on the public pensions system by the end of the year, finance minister Gheorghe Pogea said recently.
