Venezuela's Rodriguez announces 'responsible increase' to wages from May

ReutersApr 8, 2026 11:26 PM

April 8 (Reuters) - Venezuela's Acting President Delcy Rodriguez said on Wednesday her government will make a "responsible increase" to workers' income on May 1, as her administration looks to leverage oil and mining developments to improve workers' salaries.

Venezuela's base minimum wage has been at 130 bolivares per month since March 2022, equivalent to just a few cents, though many public employees earn more through bonuses and other payments that can take their monthly incomes up to some $120.
