The proposal came after meetings with employers’ organisations and trade unions. Earlier, the Confederation of Independent Trade Unions in Bulgaria (CITUB) had demanded the minimum wage be raised to BGN400. In an interview, deputy health minister Vanyo Sharkov said he would strive to raise the pay of emergency care workers at a steeper rate of 20% per year for the next five years in order to boost motivation at work.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp align=\"left\">\u003Cspan face=\"Georgia\">\u003Cspan size=\"2\">English: \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.novinite.com\u002Fview_news.php?id=165117\">\u003Cspan>\u003Cspan size=\"2\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.novinite.com\u002Fview_news.php?id=165117\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan size=\"2\"> \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.novinite.com\u002Fview_news.php?id=165126\">\u003Cspan>\u003Cspan face=\"Georgia\" size=\"2\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.novinite.com\u002Fview_news.php?id=165126\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan face=\"Georgia\" size=\"2\"> \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies (AIAS) \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:cbn-aias@uva.nl\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">cbn-aias@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\"> or the communications officer at the ETUI, Mariya Nikolova \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:mnikolova@etui.org\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">mnikolova@etui.org\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">.
