As we head toward the new year, millions of workers who did not receive a mid-year raise in July have turned their eyes and ears toward the 2025 minimum wage hike.
The Minimum Wage Determination Commission will hold its first meeting on December 10.
The 5-person Türk-İş delegation representing the workers in the commission will be chaired by Deputy Chairman Ramazan Ağar. As in previous years, the delegation will include 4 workers this year as well.
The workers will be represented at the table by cook Selma Sayın, hairdresser Nihan Koçak, subcontractor worker Durmuş Öztürk, and journalist Sezer Özseven.
According to the probable scenarios regarding the minimum wage, the wages will take shape as follows:
“If a 20 percent raise is granted, the minimum wage will be 20 thousand 402 liras.
If a 25 percent raise is granted, the minimum wage will be 21 thousand 252 liras.
If a 30 percent raise is granted, the minimum wage will be 22 thousand 102 liras.
If a 35 percent raise is granted, the minimum wage will be 22 thousand 502 liras.
If a 40 percent raise is granted, the minimum wage will be 23 thousand 802 liras.”
FIGURES ON THE TABLE FOR THE MINIMUM WAGE
While different scenarios regarding minimum wage hike estimates are being discussed, the rate at which negotiations for the new minimum wage will begin is also becoming clear. Based on public expectations, it is anticipated that negotiations will start with a demand for a minimum increase of 25-35 percent.
Sözcü TV Main News Anchor Fatih Portakal shared the information he obtained regarding the minimum wage hike.
"THE FIGURE THAT WILL BE AGREED UPON"
Portakal stated the following:
Now you are wondering how much the minimum wage will rise to? Some people are calling others to try and learn something. The figure I learned is this. It is said to be the figure that will be agreed upon. Of course, it is not certain.
It is said that the minimum wage will be 24 thousand TL. It is currently 17 thousand 2 TL, and a rate of more or less 40-41 percent is being mentioned.
