I propose to the Government of Slovenia to abolish the reimbursement of transport costs to the workplace, paid lunches (the half-hour break remains!) jubilee awards (for 10, 20 and 30 years of service), the past service allowance, the shift work allowance, and to reduce the allowances for night and Sunday/holiday work and to limit the number of overtime hours worked in the public administration (new recruitments!). The severance pay on retirement is 1 average Slovenian gross salary, but the continuity bonus (i.e. loyalty to the employer) remains. Most of the abolished bonuses are already partly covered by promotions or the employee's salary grades (applies to the civil service). As we know, both paid snacks and commuting were social correctives that once made the entire population of the country fully employable, regardless of distance from the workplace, and artificially raised minimum wages. (We know that after a few months, an unemployed person had the People's Militia ringing at the door of his flat to ask if he was thinking of finding a job.) This is necessary to preserve jobs and to provide money for the mass of wages on which contributions and taxes depend (health, social security, state budget, etc.). I myself remember the days when craftsmen and construction companies paid minimum wages to workers and the rest was in an envelope (i.e. taxes and contributions were never paid on these sums and the worker never got a decent pension and even if he became a high earner he got a minimum allowance and severance pay). In the long term, the Slovenian civil service and the economy must strive to move towards European wages. The level of salaries will also determine the level of pensions (there will be no transport, no snacks, etc.) In Europe, we know that snacks, transport, etc. can be at best a matter of individual agreement between the employee and the employer, not a necessity. Of course, Europe knows about the 13th salary, the Christmas bonus and so on for successful companies.
