Dialogue on Adequate Minimum Wages in Cyprus

September 7, 2024

Cyprus is starting a dialogue to align with the EU regarding adequate minimum wages, with the first meetings scheduled for September 10 and 17. The goal is to avoid delays and adopt the relevant Directive by the end of the year. The alignment may be achieved through new legislation or amendments to the existing law. At the same time, trade unions are calling for the strengthening of collective agreements, as the coverage rate is around 50%.
