This is due to the increase in the military tax.
The salaries of Ukrainians may decrease as early as 2025.
This was reported by the People's Deputy of Ukraine from the “Voice” faction Galina Vasilchenko.
“In fact, salaries will decrease, a bill on increasing taxes has been drafted. We remember that it provides for an increase in the military tax to 5%,” Vasilchenko said.
She explained that all employees will have to pay this amount to the state budget of Ukraine for their salaries. So if the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky signs the law on taxes, then salaries will decrease.
Earlier it was reported that, according to the National Bank, the average monthly salary in the first quarter of 2024 increased by 22.5% compared to the same period in 2023, since enterprises continue to experience a shortage of qualified workers.
Recall that from April 1, the minimum wage in Ukraine, in accordance with the budget for 2024, increased by 900 hryvnia and is 8 thousand hryvnia per month.
