Minimum Wage Impasse: Blackmail and Impunity

An effort to improve the minimum wage is at an impasse, facing blackmail from employer organizations and impunity from unions.

Employer organizations threaten layoffs due to increased costs, while unions demand more.

Workers hope for a job, even with a low salary, knowing that they may need to look for work elsewhere after six months, as employers may prefer to hire new staff to avoid legally mandated increases. This practice is widespread but seems to concern no one, not even powerful unions.
