Today we mark the International Workers Day, also known as Labor Day. According to Dimitar Manolov, President of the Confederation of Labor Podkrepa, the war in Ukraine, inflation and the energy crisis are the biggest challenges for the Bulgarian society. “We cannot have incomes if this goes ahead”, said Dimitar Manolov.

In many sectors in Bulgaria, the workday exceeds 8 hours.
