At today’s session, the Government of the Republic of Serbia had adopted Amendments to the Regulation on the coefficients for the calculation and payment of salaries of employees in public services.
The said Amendments propose an increase in the coefficients determined for the calculation and payment of salaries of employees in primary and secondary schools, preschool institutions, as well as of employees in student residencies, whose calculated basic salary is lower than the amount of the minimum wage determined for the territory of the Republic of Serbia. An increase in the coefficients for the calculation and payment of salaries for certain positions is proposed so that, together with the effects of the planned 5.5% increase of the base for employees in education, in accordance with the budget regulations, an increase in the salaries of these employees above the amount of the minimum wage could be ensured.
Amendments to the Regulation also propose a change in the basis for increasing the coefficient for the part of employees in the professional services of the Republic Health Insurance Fund, taking into account the changes in the competences of that fund.
