Inflation Difference Increase to Civil Servant Salaries Will Be Insufficient
“In this case, it is obvious that the inflation difference increase in civil servant salaries will be insufficient. Subjecting civil servants to inflation reduces the quality of life of both civil servants and their families. Day by day, more increases are reflected in every product, from food to fuel, from clothing to energy, than the rate of increase made at the Collective Agreement table in a 2-year period. First of all, the pressure of inflation on salaries that cannot keep up with rapidly increasing costs reduces the quality of life of civil servants and their families. It is important for the Collective Agreement table to meet more frequently in order to adapt to economic changes more quickly. The loss of purchasing power of health professionals and the inability of civil servants to receive their share of welfare indicate an unfair economy. At this point, the Collective Agreement increase and inflation difference need to be determined in accordance with real inflation. In addition, by drawing attention to the disappointment in the yellow union and the Collective Agreement table, more effective steps should be taken to defend the interests of civil servants. Finally, it should be noted that the inflation difference is not just a gain but a reward for labor and should not deviate from the real inflation figures. For civil servant inflation raise, TÜİK data is taken as basis. Inflation difference; It is not a RAISE or EARNINGS.
