LMP prepares action plan for handling labour shortage
Budapest (MTI) – The green opposition LMP party will submit to parliament an action plan on handling Hungary’s labour shortages, the party’s co-leader announced on Monday.
Hungary is seeing an emigration of its skilled workers and certain companies are considering importing labour from countries with low wages, Bernadett Szél told a press conference in Ajka, in western Hungary.
LMP is therefore submitting a five-point action plan to parliament to protect Hungarian workers, she said. The plan proposes making minimum wage tax-free and raising its purchasing power above the subsistence level. It also recommends an immediate pay rise in the public sector and increased government spending on worker training, retraining and vocational training programmes. The plan also calls for launching social housing programmes.
