“None of our friends from the party is a member of this commission. I thought 10k gross. Apart from my academic identity, I am also involved in working life. In my work as a private individual or as a minimum wage consultant, my estimates were probably 1 lira a bewilderment. An increase in the minimum wage also creates expectations for other workers. I expect around 8.000-8.250 TL.

In 2001, the minimum wage was $92. The dollar exchange rate during this period is growing. Until 2015, the dollar exchange rate remained normal; in 2015, the minimum wage was $560. After a treacherous attempt at a coup d’état, there is a decline. In dollar terms, that’s $391 in 2020 despite global attacks. The figure looms 420-430 dollars. For a system in which the worker is not oppressed, the employer must also endure.”
