Vladimir Putin proposed an amendment - to increase the minimum wage to 13,890 rubles. Deputies and senators adopted the amendment and provided it in the federal budget for 2022-2024.
As Putin noted, the increase in the minimum wage "will affect the growth of many social benefits, including payments to families with children and pension supplements, will serve as a guideline for the establishment of wages in the economic sectors."
