Distribution of the salaries in Romania: 34,000 employees earn over 10,000 lei net per month, and 70% of the employees under 1,700 lei
Two of the employees in Romania earn less than 1,700 lei monthly (380 euro net) as Romania does not manage to draw investments with added values to offer well paid work places.
Only 34,000 employees earn over 10,000 lei net per month, 400,000 between 3,000 and 10,000 lei net per month and the rest of 4 million under 3,000 lei, showthe data from the ministry of work offered by Ziarul Financiar.
The distribution of employees depending on the level of salaries is an indicator interesting for all marketing departments in the companies to adjust their offers.
‘Not only the inequality of the distribution of income is the problem, but the productivity, as reduced productivity is given by the fact that we have too little capital in the country. We lack a long-term policy to draw and keep investments as the short-term policies brought us into this situation. The solution for the increase of the salaries is the increase of productivity, but in order for this to happen we need to create the conditions to draw and from capital, not by hunting supermarkets for profit or hunting the small investors with ANAF or with speeches such as ‘ we don’t sell our country’ said Radu Nechita, university professor at the Faculty for European Studies in the Babes-Bolyai University in Cluj. He said that until now, the salaries of the Romanian employees increased especially in such domains as financial services, IT or oil extraction (the sectors where the employees have the biggest salaries in the economy) namely in the areas ‘ connected to the world market’.
The structure of the employees on categories of income shows a gap on the work market in Romania where very many employees earn very little and very few employees earn very much.
Thus, almost 44% of the Romanian employees have income under 1,000 lei net per month (namely over 2million employees) and 28% earn between 1,000 and 1,700 lei net per month (namely over 1,3 million people).
At the same time, almost one quarter (23% of the employees, namely 1,1 million people) earn between 1,700 and 4,000 lei net per month, while 5% of the Romanian employees (namely almost 250,000 people) earn over 4,000 lei net per month.
