Minimum wage in Croatia is regulated by the Minimum Wage Act ( Croatian: Zakon o minimalnoj plaći) and is defined as the lowest gross monthly wage for a full-time worker, based on a 40-hour work week. [1] [2] For workers who do not work full time, minimum wage is lower, in proportion to their working hours. [1] Additional compensation for overtime work, night work, and work on Sundays and holidays is not included in the minimum wage. [1] Minimum wage is recalculated once a year and is effective throughout the next calendar year. [3]
As of 1 January 2024, the minimum gross monthly wage in Croatia is €840, which is equivalent to a net amount of €677. [4] Among 21 EU member states that regulate minimum wage, Croatian minimum wage is fifth lowest. [5]
In January 2018, minimum wage was received by 45,245 workers, [6] down from c. 80,000 in 2014. [7]
