Slovak PM Fico's Salary Surpasses President Pellegrini's Following Statistical Adjustment
Share:
Prime Minister Robert Fico now earns more than President Peter Pellegrini after Slovakia's Statistical Office released average wage data for the previous year in early March. The salaries of Slovak politicians are calculated based on multiples of the country's average wage, meaning political compensation automatically adjusts when new wage statistics are published. This statistical adjustment has resulted in Fico's prime ministerial salary exceeding that of the president, marking a shift in the relative compensation of the country's top political offices.
