ABSTRACT
This report provides an insight into the actors’ structure and practices in wage setting. The focus is on the role of wage bargaining, which is underdeveloped in Estonia with a bargaining coverage of 6 percent. In the light of raising bargaining coverage according to the stipulation of the European Directive on Adequate Minimum Wages, the report provides an insight into current wage setting practices across four sectors: construction, hospitality, urban transportation and waste management.
