In accordance with the current Labour Code (LC), the minimum wage for 2025 has been set by a decree of the Council of Ministers and will be BGN 1,077 from January 1. Legislative changes to transpose the EU Adequate Minimum Wages Directive into national law will not lead to a reduction in its amount, the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy told BTA. On Wednesday, the Ministry said that the proposed amendments to the Labour Code will be discussed at a working group on November 14.
