Total Croatia News

ZAGREB, May 1, 2018 – Social Democratic Party (SDP) president Davor Bernardić on Monday wished all Croatian citizens the best on the International Workers’ Day, saying the strongest opposition party “has been and will be the biggest protector of workers’ rights,” and proposing that the minimum wage be raised to 4,000 kuna or 60% of the average wage.

Seventy percent of workers in Croatia work for less than 5,000 kuna a month, 100,000 for less than 3,000 kuna, i.e. minimum wage, work conditions are uncertain, people work on fixed-term contracts or through agencies which exploit them, Bernardić said in a message.

He added that people could not plan a family because they did not have elementary living conditions, as a result of which workers were emigrating on a daily basis.
