Slovenia - negotiating your pay and benefits?

Negotiating your pay and benefits

There is an unwritten rule that during the inter¬view it is the employer who should bring up the subject of pay, not the jobseeker. You can then state the range (minimum and maximum) that would be suitable for you. Pay consists of the basic wage or salary, part of the wage or salary for job performance and extra pay.

Pay is expressed as a monthly rate. Holiday pay and annual bonuses are included in the remuneration listed.

Employers are obliged to enrol their workers in a pension, invalidity, health and unemployment insurance scheme within 8 days of the job start date. They are also required to deliver a photo-copy of the registration to the employee within 15 days of commencing work.
