Esquerra Republicana (ERC) has demanded the revaluation with the CPI of the salaries of all workers who receive less than three times the minimum wage (3,150 euros in 14 payments) and of all workers in the public sector, ensuring the financing of this rise in all administrations with a fund in charge of the General State Budgets.
All this in a non-law proposal registered in Congress, and collected by Europa Press, in which this formation demands “an extraordinary intervention by the public powers” to guarantee the maintenance of the purchasing power of the working class and its capacity of consumption in the price crisis.
Esquerra justifies this action under the protection of the Constitution itself, international and community legislation to ensure equitable and sufficient remuneration for workers and the Sustainable Development Goals themselves.
Public, private and IPREM salaries
Specifically, it asks to have through a regulation with the force of law, and with effect from January 1, 2023, the revaluation of all employed workers with wages that do not reach three times the minimum wage (3,150 euros in 14 payments), for a percentage equivalent to the increase in the CPI of its autonomous community.
Likewise, it claims to promote a fund to finance in the next Budgets through current transfers the increase in wages for all public sector workers in an equivalent percentage.
Finally, it asks to increase the Iprem (Public Indicator of Income for Multiple Effects), used as a reference for the granting of aid or subsidies, “up to the amount equivalent to the poverty threshold of each community.”
