LabMin: 1.3 million Romanians escaped the risk of social deprivation and extreme poverty

Published on

Over 1.3 million Romanians have come out of the risk of social deprivation and the risk of extreme poverty in 2023-2024, Minister of Labour, Family, Youth and Social Solidarity Simona Bucura-Oprescu said on Thursday.

„Look at the relevant data for the years 2023-2024. Well, 1.3 million Romanians have come out of the risk of social deprivation and the risk of extreme poverty. Together, through a good collaboration, we must find solutions so that, through better collection, we have sustainability, so that the fiscal-budgetary measures are not unburdened neither on people nor on capital, in the sense of increasing rates and taxes. Also, through better collection, we will be able to keep up the growth rate we need, both for the social protection measures guaranteed by the constitution, and also for the development of Romania,” Bucura-Oprescu told a debate organised by the National Trade Union Bloc.

According to her, the most important market that Romania has is the labour market.

„If we have a strong labour market, we can then also talk about strong prospects, and a strong capital market and a strong money market. But all this must originate in the labour market, which represents each of us and offers Romania’s development prospects,” she said.

Bucura-Oprescu participated on Thursday in a debate on the transposition of the principles of the European Pillar of Social Rights in the Romanian labour market, on the second day of the 13th Congress of the National Trade Union Bloc (NBS).
