President Erdoğan Makes Important Statements at HAK-İŞ General Assembly in Ankara
Civil servants and retirees in Turkey may soon receive an increase in their salaries, according to recent statements made by President Erdogan. In a speech, Erdogan praised the efforts of HAK-İŞ, a workers’ union that has contributed to the growth of the economy. He also noted that the minimum wage has significantly increased since he took office, and emphasized the government’s commitment to protecting the rights and welfare of citizens.
Erdogan stated that the government has signed a protocol to increase the wages of around 700,000 workers and increase the welfare share by 45%. He also mentioned plans to ensure that the lowest civil servant salary does not fall below the lowest public worker salary, setting the lowest salary at 22,000 liras.
The president’s comments have raised hopes among civil servants and retirees who have been struggling with rising living costs and inflation. The government’s efforts to increase salaries and protect workers’ rights are seen as important steps towards improving the economy and promoting social justice.
While there is no definitive timeline for the proposed salary increases, civil servants and retirees are optimistic that their long-standing demands for fair compensation will be met. Erdogan’s commitment to improving the lives of the country’s workers is seen as a positive sign that the government is taking meaningful steps towards addressing economic disparities and promoting social welfare.
