The National Confederation for Women's Entrepreneurship (CONAF) urges the government to reduce labor taxation before increasing the minimum wage in 2027. A survey revealed that 88.5% of members support wage increases only if accompanied by tax reductions. CONAF emphasizes that wage hikes do not fully benefit employees due to taxes, and companies bear the additional costs. They call for an analysis of how net incomes can rise through tax cuts rather than solely through gross wage increases. The organization also requests that the government present scenarios comparing the impacts of maintaining the current minimum wage versus reducing taxes or increasing wages. Additionally, they advocate for adjustments in social contributions for part-time contracts and timely communication of minimum wage decisions to aid business budgeting.
