BOFEPUSU wants protection against inflation

In a proposal on public worker’s pay, incentives and allowances, BOFEPUSU said the high inflation rate due to the increase in some administered prices, namely public transport fares, electricity tariffs and fuel prices has led to a decline of real salary value. The federation argued that this high inflation can therefore be mitigated by incentives, allowances and better pay.

“This is to compensate employees for work they do, to motivate them to perform well, to retain them, and hereby avoid the need for expensive recruitment and training for replacement,” BOFEPUSU argued.
