Peru union rejects two-stage minimum wage hike to S/1,230, demands S/1,700

Peru's largest labor confederation CGTP criticizes the government's plan to raise the minimum wage (RMV) to S/1,230 in two stages, arguing the increase is insufficient and that the two-stage approach was not previously agreed. The union demands a wage closer to S/1,700, citing inflation and the cost of the basic family basket. The dispute signals potential labor unrest and political friction over economic policy.
