Maurate affirmed that the increase in the minimum wage will be responsible.

In this way coincided with the Minister of Economy and Finance, José Arista, who created the same expectation the day before.
Maurate announced that he understands the concern of the union sector for a greater increase because the minimum wage must certainly be improved. But, apparently, that won’t happen.
“We understand, of course, because every sensible person must understand that the minimum wage is not enough and we need to improve it. But workers have to understand that we cannot make an irresponsible increase because those who are struggling to stay or enter formality are basically micro and small businesses,” he explained to Andina.
Maurate indicated that it is also important that employers can understand the situation even if they prefer that the increase not be made and “they have been campaigning intensely for there to be no increase in the minimum wage, but I am sure that they will understand that their workers deserve win better”
