The protests started as a response to the announcement of an overhaul of the system of taxation. The measures proposed by the Government plan the rise of the minimum wage, but contributions to a compulsory private pension fund scheme will be limited (see also our October issue). Employers will have to pay a 2.25% tax on their overall wage fund and small businesses with annual turnover below one million euro will have to contribute only 1% tax on turnover instead of the current 16% tax on profit, thus lowering social security contributions by employers and shifting their entire burden onto employees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Read on: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.romania-insider.com\u002F15000-people-join-anti-govt-protest-bucharest\u002F\">in English (1)\u003C\u002Fa> …   \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.romania-insider.com\u002Fmassive-anti-govt-protest-bucharest\u002F\">in English (2) …\u003C\u002Fa>   \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.romania-insider.com\u002Flargest-national-union-general-strike\u002F\">in English (3) …\u003C\u002Fa>   \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.industriall-union.org\u002Fromania-protest-against-shifting-cost-of-social-security-onto-workers-shoulders\">in English (4) …\u003C\u002Fa>  \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"CM3\">\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers or Nuria Ramos Martin, 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, Willy De Backer \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:wdebacker@etui.org\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">wdebacker@etui.org\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">.
