The readjustment is already planned and is 50 euros, which is quite relevant. If you think well until the end of the legislature this agreement allows for an increase in the income level of the workers, at the level of the minimum wage, of 34%. Therefore, this is not a small thing in a country like Portugal, said Rosario Palma Ramalho.
The Minister of Labour, Solidarity and Social Security, Rosário Palma Ramalho, defended this Thursday that the increase of 50 euros in the minimum wage in 2027 is "significantly relevant" and reiterated that the government will honor the agreement established in Social Concertation, despite the union demands.
The Government plans to increase the national budget to EUR 970 by 2027, as provided for in the agreement signed in Concerta o Social.

The Minister of Labour considered that the minimum wage increases envisaged for this parliamentary term, including that of 50 euros in 2027, are not small for Portugal.
Rosário Palma Ramalho argues that the planned increase of 50 euros until 2027 represents an increase of 34% and corresponds to the agreement of the Social Concertation
