ZAGREB, Aug 9 (Hina) - The Croatian Employers' Association (HUP)
supports the government's measures of decreasing funds for the
public sector and social contributions, the HUP said in a statement
issued today.
The Association also holds that a consensus among social partners -
- the government, employers and unions -- reach a consensus on
delicate issues the government's actions give rise to.
The crisis can be overcome and the most important social and
economic issues solved only by spurring production, the HUP
stressed. It is thus necessary to create favourable conditions, a
positive business climate, and stimulate exports to create new jobs
and instigate the development cycle.
One of the necessary tasks in this direction is the curbing of
public expenditure, where incomes in state and public services, as
well as social contributions, rank high, the association
asserted.
All this, they continued, must be harmonised with the ability of the
economy which, at this development level, cannot bare the current
level of burden.
