CCR: Angajații cu dizabilități grave sau accentuate nu pot pierde sporul de 15% din cauza plafonului salarial

The Constitutional Court ruled that local government employees with severe or accentuated disabilities cannot lose a 15% salary bonus due to salary caps. This decision arose from a case where an inspector challenged the denial of the bonus because his salary exceeded the vice mayor's allowance, which is used as a salary limit. The Court found this practice discriminatory, as it created unequal treatment among employees in similar situations. The ruling emphasizes that the bonus is a protective measure for disabled individuals and should not be restricted by salary caps. This decision affects public servants and contractual employees in local administrations, ensuring they retain their bonuses regardless of salary limits.
