07/04/2017

The BDDSz childcare workers’ trade union in Hungary is supporting the ETUC’s pay rise campaign. The union believes that many of the headline demands of the campaign – tackling low pay and the gender pay gap – are in line with the union’s priorities. It is encouraging members to show their support.

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

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

Josipa, hotel housekeeper

"If I would get a pay rise to expand even just a little bit our contacts with friends and even some weekend to get away from the big ciy. If I can dream a bit more, I'd expect to make some small improvements in our home."

Silvia, PA in a private company

"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
