Minimum wage structure

If you work full-time for an employer in the Republic of Slovenia, you are entitled to be paid at least the minimum wage for the work you do.
In the case of part-time work, the worker is entitled to at least a pro rata share of the minimum wage.
It follows from the basic wording of the law that the minimum wage includes all the elements of a wage as set out in the Labour Relations Act, i.e. the basic salary of the employee for a given month, the performance component of the salary and the allowances to which the employee is entitled, with the exception of the allowance for working overtime.
