WHAT IS ABOUT WAGES IN THE CZECH EDUCATION AND HEALTHCARE SECTORS BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER THE GLOBAL ECONOMIC RECESSION?

Journal Title: Asian Economic and Financial Review - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 1

Abstract

Wages in the Czech education and healthcare sectors have been a widely debated issue. The present paper deals with the wage development in the above two areas compared to that on the national scale before, during and after the global recession, focusing on recent earnings of Czech teaching and medical staff. Since the income of the latter is notably affected by overtime pay, the structure of wages in the health service sector is given proper attention. The development of the wage levels and concentrations in both the sectors and their comparison with those in other areas is also considered, the professions with the lowest and highest earnings being highlighted.
