The government has confirmed the implementation of the remaining nine percent of the previously agreed 14 percent salary and wage increase from January 1, 2024.
Public sector workers, eagerly anticipating a salary hike, will see these adjustments in their January paychecks.
Monthly-paid employees will notice the increase at the end of January, while weekly-paid workers will experience it in their first payment after January 1, 2024.
Contrary to speculations about a phased approach, the government has clarified that the full nine percent will be added to wages and salaries starting January 1.
Notably, a five percent increase was already disbursed to public servants at the end of 2021 before the conclusion of the negotiations.
