Continuing Consultation on the ATA with New Deadline
July 9, 2025
The discussion around the cost-of-living allowance (ATA) has created a significant divide between employers and trade unions, preventing the Minister of Labor from making a proposal. Both sides remain steadfast in their positions, and the latest meeting yielded no results. An additional 10-day extension for consultations has been granted in hopes of reaching an agreement. Despite the situation, unions continue with their scheduled meetings.
