Yuri Seliverstov: Salaries of Belarusians to grow by August-September

22 апреля 2022
Finance Minister Yuri Seliverstov made a forecast on when will salaries and pensions grow.

The tasks to ensure that wages did not fall with inflation were set by the head of state and the government. "The first steps have already been made. Wages have increased since March, in April the incremental steps were taken," the minister said. 

"The extent to which we can raise wages and pensions is a matter of filling the budget," said the head of the department. - It's still premature to talk about specific amounts. But these are the tasks, we will come to an appropriate decision somewhere in August or September.

Every year some increase in wages is planned. In 2022, the government made the decision to increase it earlier, as early as spring. "This is not the last decision to increase wages," the minister said confidently.
