salary raise

Romanian public sector employees handling projects financed from European Union funds might benefit from a 75% raise in salaries, which would be covered from funds assigned for the respective projects, not from the state budget funds, says a draft emergency decree proposed by the Labor Ministry.

The employees of Romanian automaker Automobile Dacia will receive a salary raise of 300 lei (EUR1=RON4.1137), which will be paid in two stages in 2010, after union leaders and the company’s management have managed to reach common ground Wednesday.
