Employers suggest written pledge to raise wages for Labour Code

Danas Arlauskas, director general of the Lithuanian Employee Confederation, told the portal that the organization had already submitted proposals to the new ruling Peasant and Green Union on steps that can be taken in connection to the new Labour Code, noting that employers would pledge to increase employer wages by a certain extent, if an agreement is reached.

Artūras Černiauskas, the head of the Confederation of Lithuanian Trade Unions, said he had not heard anything about the Labour Code and the wage increase, expressing doubt about the agreement but not ruling out the possibility. Gitanas Nausėda, adviser to SEB Bankas president, said the idea was attractive but difficult to translate into reality.
