The subsistence income decreased with 0.1% on a monthly basis and increased with 3,6% on an annual basis.
We want to have a national definition of the living wage, announced quarterly by the national statistics, CITUB President Plamen Dimitrov said. This way, citizens will have an idea of how much money they need to live relatively well according to Bulgarian standards. The necessary income for food alone is 572 Leva (EUR 288) for a working person per month. This is 39.4% of the total income, said CITUB.
