The three nationally representative trade union organizations have just requested an urgent meeting with the Prime Minister on the subject of adjusting the personal income tax scale to inflation.<\/p>\n
During the last meetings of the Tripartite Coordination Committee, such an adjustment was one of the main demands of the three organizations to which the Government has not yet responded.<\/p>\n
However, in the context of still high inflation, this adjustment has become essential in the eyes of the trade unions in order to maintain the purchasing power of employees and pensioners. Without adjusting the scale, this purchasing power is only compensated at the gross level, while it continues to decrease at the net level. Indeed, for an average salary, an index tranche of 2.5% gross represents only a net increase of 1.75%. It is high time that this creeping and hidden tax increase comes to an end.<\/p>\n
For this reason, OGBL, LCGB and CGFP have requested an urgent meeting with the Prime Minister before the next meeting of the Tripartite Coordination Committee to discuss the concrete modalities of such an adjustment.<\/p>\n
For the three trade union organizations, this subject must imperatively be part of the upcoming tripartite discussions.<\/p>\n
