The wage of 356,000 public staff elevated on January 1 to keep away from a wage under the minimal wage | EUROtoday

The remuneration of“around 356,000 public officials” will probably be barely revalued on 1er January 2026 to forestall them from being paid under the minimal wage, the Ministry of Public Accounts introduced on Tuesday, December 23.

The minimal wage will probably be elevated by 1.18% on 1er January, i.e. a minimal wage of 1,823.03 euros gross per thirty days and 12.02 euros gross per hour. However, the minimal wage (minimal wage) for civil servants is right now set at 1,801.74 euros, under the longer term quantity of the minimal wage.

Since public staff can’t be paid under the minimal wage, the minimal wage will probably be elevated by 21.23 euros on 1er January, by means of a “differential compensation” (bonus) relatively than a rise in base wage. “About 356,000” brokers out of the 5.8 million within the civil service will probably be affected by this revaluation, in accordance with the Ministry of Public Accounts.
