Will President Erdoğan increase the minimum wage? All eyes are on this hour.

The minimum wage for 2025, which millions have been eagerly waiting for, has been announced. Minister of Labor and Social Security Vedat Işıkhan stated that the minimum wage for 2025 has been set at 22,104 TL with a 30% increase. The minimum wage support provided to employers has also been raised to 1,000 TL. The 30% increase in the minimum wage has caught the public off guard. As reactions to the increase from the labor sector and the opposition continue to grow, all eyes are on President Erdoğan.

HE SHARED A "CONGRATULATIONS" MESSAGE

Minutes after the announcement of the increase decision, President Erdoğan shared a 'congratulations' message on his social media account. In his post, President Erdoğan stated, "In 2025, the minimum wage will be applied as a net 22,104 TL with a 30% increase. May it be beneficial for our country and our nation."

WILL ERDOĞAN INTERVENE?

After President Erdoğan shared the 'congratulations' message, expectations that "Erdoğan will raise the minimum wage increase, making one last touch" were somewhat tempered. However, reactions to the 30% increase in the minimum wage continue to grow significantly. While some express that the minimum wage increase is now certain after Erdoğan's post, others maintain the view that the minimum wage could still rise.

ALL EYES TURNED TO 12:00

After all these developments, all eyes are on the AK Party Group Meeting to be held today... The group meeting, which will start at 12:00, will closely follow the messages Erdoğan will give regarding the minimum wage increase.
