Minister: Stimuli to ministry employees would be removed

Employees in the ministries forming the Romanian government may no longer receive stimuli for their work, Regional Development and Tourism minister Elena Udrea said on Wednesday. She said, however, that a decision on how to remove such stimuli was yet to be made.

Udrea said that a governmental decision might be needed for the stimuli – bonuses aimed at compensating those who hold similar positions as others but who work harder – to be eliminated.

Currently, some employees in Romanian ministries receive a series of stimuli which lead to major differences in the incomes of employees who hold similar positions.
