OREANDA-NEWS.  January 13, 2012. The national budget may have lost 5,036 bln. leis in 2011 due to non-declared incomes from illicit employment and backdoor salaries. These are preliminary results presented in the analysis “Proposals for the policy of illicit employment reduction” carried out by the ministry of labor, social protection and family. According to the document, non-declared incomes received from illicit employment and backdoor wages is growing by approximately 6% every year.

This leads to creation of unhealthy economic climate and unsound competitiveness. In 2010 57%\\$ of the population of the country did not declared the actual salaries, and as a result, the national budget lost 4,7 bln. leis.

According to Valentina Buliga, minister of labor, social protection and family, the issue is concealed in the administrative system and economic entities and in employees themselves as far as they should require for work contracts to be signed. In 2011 the labor inspectorate checked 5500 economic entities and revealed 36 669 violations of the labor law, Valentina Buliga has stressed.

The ministry of labor, social protection and family suggests making tougher existing punitive sanctions because they do not provide the reduction of the illicit employment. At present, the fines are making 40-50 c.u. for individuals and 80-120 c.. for economic entities.

 To abate illegal employment employers have to present to territorial labor inspectorates the schemes of classification showing the number of workers and to give a permit to each of their workers, Sergiu Sainciuc, deputy minister of labor and social protection has said. In addition, Sergiu Sainciuc has noticed that in 2012 the cabinet is going to consider a project providing the reduction of illegal employment and giving backdoor wages.
