Lithuania’s 2027 Budget Proposal Includes Wage and Pension Increases

The draft state budget approved on 16 October includes planned increases in wages and pensions alongside national expenditure of €27.9 billion. These proposed measures may influence public-sector workforce planning and labour-cost forecasts, subject to the budget’s approval and implementation. Employers, recruitment agencies and training providers can explore workforce planning, skills development and compensation analysis. No specific new HR-services contract value was verified in the reporting reviewed for 15–21 October.
