Employees of the National Institute of Statistics (INS) are protesting for unpaid salary rights awarded by court rulings, averaging 12-15,000 lei per employee. The union leader stated that between 150 and 200 members are demanding payment from the Ministry of Finance, which has not allocated necessary budget resources. The payments are scheduled over five years, but funds for 2025 are frozen and not included for 2026. The union plans further actions if no resolution is reached, citing a lack of dialogue with the Ministry. They also demand alignment of INS salaries with those of the Government Secretariat due to the complexity of their work.
