Minimum wage increase of 2.65%
The minimum growth wage (smic) will increase by 2.65% from the beginning of May, or 33 euros net more, for a total of 1,302.64 euros net for 35 hours of work per week. This increase is due to the levels of inflation and to a provision of the Labor Code which provides that beyond 2% inflation, the minimum wage is increased in the same proportions. Or 2.65% this month.
