Despite the legal uncertainty and the general climate that is pointing to an economic slowdown, the Government in functions of Pedro Sanchez is very optimistic. In the latest forecast that has been sent to Brussels, predicts that wages will grow in Spain to 2.2% in 2020, even above and beyond what they have done in the year that has just (by 2.1%). That is to say, that taking into account that the prices are estimated to grow only 1.2% (estimate of the Bank of Spain), the whole of the wage-earners will gain in purchasing power next year.
The public employees will have a rise in that environment. The Government has promised them an increase minimum in 2020 of 2% (plus a 0.3% of additional funds), which calculates that it will have a cost of 3.264 billion euros. Yes, like the rest of emoluments which depend on the Official State Bulletin (BOE), will have to wait until the Government is formed and ceases to be in functions, although the increase will apply retroactively from 1 January.

The proposal is an increase of 900 to 1,000 euros, after which in 2019 have already increased by 22.3% from the 736 euros. Good news, according to the unions, and “alarming” according to the businessmen who, by the mouth of the CEOE, have already warned that will destruction of employment, in particular for young people. Employers and unions will have to negotiate with the Government the rise.
tolls climbs up a 0,84% but disappear in the AP-7 and AP-4.
the self-employed they will continue tightening from the State to contribute more to the coffers of the Social Security. Although for 2020 do not provide for increases in the minimum base of contribution, now located in the 944,35 euros per month and take 90% of the self-employed, the rate of exchange goes up 3 tenths, and stood at 30.3%, with what people self-employed will have to pay 2,83 € more per month (33,96 € / year).
