BARWAGE: The interplay of statutory minimum wages and collective wage bargaining across European sectors: A Study on Bulgaria

Marta Kahancová

No 69, Research Reports from Central European Labour Studies Institute (CELSI)

Abstract: This report identifies and analyses the wage setting practices in Bulgaria, focusing on four specific sectors – construction, hospitality, urban transport, and waste management. General practices of wage setting are outlined in the context of wider global trends towards individualization and employer discretion. Evidence on the four sectors is summarised together with the most relevant trade unions and employer organization in each, with particular attention paid to low-paid jobs in the sector. Wage setting and collective bargaining in the four sectors are traced in detail, accounting for wage setting at several levels, including the statutory, municipal, sectoral, company, and individual level.
