January wage increases brought a positive surprise
The 10 percent growth rate of the gross wages in January brought a positive surprise to analysts, as market expectations were around 8.5 percent.
This year wages may grow by an annual average of 10 percent, due to 15 percent increase in minimal wages and the 25 percent increase in guaranteed minimum wage, as well as due to the increasing skills shortage. (MTI)
