The federal budget for FY2026-27 proposes a 7 percent increase in the salaries of government employees and pensions of retired employees, according to budget documents.
The budget also proposes a 10 percent increase in the minimum wage as part of the government’s relief measures for low-income workers.
According to the documents, the proposed increases have been linked to rising household expenses and inflationary pressures faced by employees, pensioners and workers.
The salary and pension adjustments, along with the proposed increase in the minimum wage, are expected to be formally presented during the federal budget session.
