The minimum wage in Ukraine is planned to raise to more than 10 thousand hryvnias. This will take place in stages by 2028. The corresponding forecast was made public by the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine on its official website.
According to the updated calculations of the Ministry of Finance, the increase in the minimum will be as follows:
-
in 2026 - up to 8 688 UAH;
-
in 2027 - up to 9 374 UAH;
-
In 2028 - up to UAH 10,059.
The Financial Office notes that these data are important for business - to plan staff costs and citizens - to assess the future income in employment.
It should be noted that earlier the government declared intentions not to change the minimum wage during 2025-2027. Obligations to restrain the growth of social standards have been taken within the limits of agreements with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). However, according to the new forecast, the plans were probably revised because of inflation in the country faster.
