More than 165,000 workers are set to receive a pay increase under coalition plans to raise the minimum wage by at least €0.55 per hour. The proposed increase will push the minimum wage above €14 per hour, directly affecting low-paid employees across multiple sectors. The measure has broad political support and is among the priority items as officials prepare final budget decisions. Budget negotiations described as a "last-minute Budget" will intensify next week as parties and ministers work to finalise spending and revenue measures for the coming period.
