Romania’s interim Labor Minister, Dragoş Pîslaru, has criticized current union tactics regarding the salary law, stating they are inconsistent with principles of social dialogue. Speaking on Digi24, Pîslaru addressed union dissatisfaction with the new legislation. He argued that unions risk losing benefits with the implementation of a unified salary law. Pîslaru cautioned against waiting for a different government to offer more favorable promises, labeling that approach a “major mistake.” The Minister's comments reflect ongoing tensions between the government and labor unions concerning wage policies. He implied that continued disruption could be detrimental to union members’ interests. The situation highlights a deep divide regarding the path forward for Romania’s public sector salary structure.
