Workers’ voices

"If wages rise significantly the satisfaction of employees would increase as well -and i think the love for the country and our common home."

Martin, sales consultant

"Croatian workers are diligent and wish to and can work a lot if they are properly paid for their work"

Josipa, hotel housekeeper

"Since workers are living on the edge, bigger income will be spent on basic goods to satify basic needs."

Mirsad, journalist

"A pay rise would make me feel appreciated and allow me to fulfill some of my two children's wishes"

Maria, retail worker
