In Ukraine 70% of the population is not ready to lower the level of desired compensation and compromise with the employer agreeing to a pay cut.
About it reports international human resource portal HeadHunter Ukraine, which conducted the study.

And even in this case, the increase in pay was reported by 51% of respondents, at the same time, 25% of respondents stated reducing the size of payments reallocation of salaries among all employees of the company. Those who increased only the official salary, and bonus pay in an envelope, and 19%.
It is noted that to increase the level of the minimum wage, Ukrainians are ambiguous. 69% of respondents believe that the increase of the minimal salary will be in the future a prerequisite to inflation, price increase and extension of the crisis of the consumer basket.
At the same time every fourth Respondent is neutral to the established by law minimum payout growth and argues that it has no affect. And only 8% of respondents have a positive attitude towards the established minimum wage and believe in raising the standard of living of Ukrainians and their solvency.
Despite the competition in the labor market, and according to hh.ua today one vacancy in Ukraine, on average, claim 3 of the applicant, the Ukrainians are not ready to change their expectations from a new job in the matter of wages in the smaller side.
